Pulled her out the shed today, and went for a boat ride.
I think she works.
Had to pole her through a big wad of eel grass to start her up for the first time.....
One slight problem....the motor would not shut off, I had not wired the kill circuit.
I was in the boat for the initial ride, but then they took me to shore, so I could shoot some pics...
We were only able to run her about 3800rpm till she is broke in.

I think she will work.
