She's finally done! After many many hours of sanding (including the bottom fiberglass resin) priming and painting, completely rebuilding the 102 and getting the lower unit back from Tom (who did a great job) its ready to hit the water. Numbers and letters will be on soon and Saturday is Race Day! here are some pictures. Oh and I got my new safety gear in from SRP last week as well as a new helmet.

**ADD** Also Will have the carb cover repainted tomorrow.

Silas, 53-A. Cya at Standish!

Everything went well. boat went nice engine started every pull. The engine did have a crank case leak which was causing the top cylinder to run lean so we just richened it up until the top looked good and the bottom was running a little rich. We are going to break that apart and fix it, should be easy.

I attached some pictures that I captured out of the video footage.
