Re: I've either made a horrible decision or a great investment
Motor number two is well on its way to going back in. It's pretty much dressed minus mounts and some little things. It'll still be a while before I can fire them up as I need to source some new injectors and other little odds and ends. I swear if I didn't have a full time job, I would be in the water by now but me and Dad are making great progress as it is. Any day now.

I've had my 98 Mariner 350 with 454's for 7 years.
I'm hands on doing about 80% maintenance, so following your journey is great learning experience.
I think the previous owner and the boat would be grateful to see the time, work and care you're putting forward.

Re: I've either made a horrible decision or a great investment

Sorry for keeping you guys in the dark for a few months, this has been a crazy journey. The great news is the boat is getting a bottom job in preparation for going into the water the beginning of next week, Tuesday I start my journey up to Port Canaveral to her new home. I'll update you guys with some more pictures and details when I have the chance.
Cheers.
