    Know how to blow 2K

    Went boating Friday and spun a coupler, we were out about 15 miles from the house and lost a coupler, so in the shop it goes Monday morning and shell out 2K to pull the engine and throw in a new one, ain't that a bitch.

    I lost one a couple years ago when I grenade my drive. Problem was I didn't know the coupler was bad until I got drive and boat back together. Thing was vibrating like a out of balance washing machine. So back in the shop to yank the engine.

    I don't think it was $2K though. I want to say it was less than a grand.

    They tells me it's going to be between $1,200-1,500 hundred bucks, but why do I know he'll find something else, ugh.

    I need to go to Vegas and win it back, I'm lucky in Vegas, this dahm puppy we got, ugh.

    Sorry to hear! Hope there's nothing else!

    What happens when you have problems out there? Do you have Vessel Assist?

    That's the blessing of having two engines, I could idle in on the other engine, but we have Sea Two and they come get you and tow you home it's about $175 a year, but the tow is free if you have it, it's well worth it.
