Engine/boat still running strong, took Caruna out for a spin at Anderson Lake in Santa Clara County, CA

Up and Runnin'....runnin' strong!

Took my boat to Lake Anderson (Santa Clara County) for a shakedown run...right after that went to Scotts Flat Lake (Amador County)....then....Lake Tahoe!!  Ran like a champ the whole time!....knock on woody!

Rebuilt engine has been dropped into boat

It's a complicated process

Took a break this past week, boatin' and campin'......we almost got the engine together for the trip but, alas, the flywheel did not match up!

the long road to rebuild

Here's my boat!

Something is happening!

It may not look like it by looking at the picture at left but progress is being made!  One thing is we got ahold of a big-ass puller that, even though it is big-ass, barely pulled off the clutch plate from the old engine.....whew!
