We signed papers in Jan., closing next month (April). Thought I posted it in the swap meet. He's not buying the trailer, so it is still available.

Hi Sean,
Our boats are almost twins!
We purchased our #4192 last fall. Doing the refit now.
Haven't had her in the water as yet (purchased on trailer). Hope she floats!!!

Voyager--Wish I agreed the cushions are 'retro cool'. I think they're just plain ugly!!
Maybe a new attitude is what's needed here....

Oh I see....it's easy to say they are retro cool when you aren't the one that owns them! LOL. I'll have to look see if he's got any pictures posted of his.

Pricing out replacements will really help the attitude.

Very cool, welcome!

I've been busy with mine. Ordered a new North Sail 135 Jib, new mainsheet, jib sheets and furling line. Ordered new port potty and eliminating the leaking marine head and holding tank.

I had the lower unit to the outboard in the shop for a bad seal and got bad news today that the unit is toast. I can buy a new LU for it for $1200 but that doesn't make sense on a 26 yr old motor. The mechanic is a Yamaha dealer and he's going to give me a pretty good deal on a new 9.9 4 stroke electric start. I think I'm going to go pick it up tomorrow

Thanks Dave for posting the photos from Passage.

Charlie - from the posted photos, the plaid cushions looked pretty good for being twenty-something years old. And nowadays everything 80's is somehow cool. But yes, the creme beige ultra-heavy duty cushions that I inherited from Dave Bristle are awesome and clean up nicely each year. Wouldn't change them out for anything.

Check out onlineoutboards.com before you buy your moto. At least use it to negotiate with your local dealer.
