After several years in the I/O world I came back to my senses and got a 84 Valero with a 91 175 XRi. Boat came with Gaffig gauges, jack plate Hynautic steering Merc Keyless ignition just to name a few. Not bad for a 27 year old boat!. Was going to take some water shots but was too busy having fun!!

Thats great! Nothing to scoff at there at all....what numbers do you anticipate by the end of the summer? Think you have enough rpm/ torque to try a 28 chopper 2? I think there a prop swap section of this forum.
