OJ, I don't know how you did that, but I think it's great! When you figure it out let us know so we can change our set up to receive similarly!

Actually, I don't know what that means, but it does seem a little odd.........

I have a Yamaha 4 cycle 4 hp long shaft and think it is great. Quiet, starts easily, and has a tank on the motor to keep things simple. Simple is what makes Ty's so beautiful.
