A little luck

Well, I guess my honesty paid off. The owner of the stolen boat came by this morning to get it. I’m glad that’s taken care of. Now I need to call the Sheriff’s office and have them close the case.

Anyway, a couple days ago I found a great 16.5’ Chrysler Courier with a Chrysler 105 hp motor on it. The guy also threw in a 60hp Johnson. Both motors run but the Chrysler has problems with its shift linkage. So, I got the whole package for $600. I tore down the gear case tonight and found that I only need to replace a couple seals and it will be in running condition.

This is my first boat(actually, the first in my whole family), so I am very excited to get it running.

good for you guess there’s something to be said for karma

That’s not a bad find. Nice of you to be honest. Is it difficult to find parts for the Chrysler motor?

I’m not sure yet if it will be difficult to find parts. I am going to check around today. If the Chrysler becomes a problem, I’ll just stick the Johnson Motor on the boat.

Good deal, I’m glad things worked out already. You will have to post us a pic.
