Hi,
I am 38 and brand new to boating. I have been on the water on a few boats, but this is my first to own.
On the water it performs as it should. The RPM gauge is sporadic. Seems to work, but also seems to be high sometimes. Outboard up and down gauge and Oil pressure gauge do not work. Some rust in funny places (maybe sunk, maybe normal?).
Took off the larger cooling elbow hose (from pump), and it has metal flakes.. Maybe from manifold..??
Well I am happy to be here and hope to one day contribute myself! Thanks in advance, I will be maybe posting soon about the metal flakes and repairing gauges.
