    I congratulate you for an amazing accomplishment. I am glad you lived to complete it after that bad fall you had. I hope the ankle has healed well and gives you no more problems. Wow is too short a word to describe your achievement.
    Excelsior!
    may be more adequate.

    just a thought

    Have you got a good well set up fuel system ? water trap plus filter all clip of fittings so if theres a major blockage can disconnect and by pass clip on a tote tank and carry on ?? nice motor and all is new and theres a last small filter under the cover but its hard to get to very fine and muck and what ever should never get that far !!! but you you never know !! good luck and good times !!!!:D:p

    The main problem with Loudoun is that it leaves the rest of us short of excuses.

    Daniel's boat is done, and I'm still pushing mine around on paper. Gonna have to get moving.....
