this ones for you ASR.......
 

Had the privilege of helping a boater today..........nice little aluminum boat. Here's the best part......he didn't make it 200 yrds from the launch when his Yamaha 4 stroke 90 caught on fire and died..........

I feel bad for the fella, but couldn't help thinking of you ASR as I towed him in with my merc.........

:rotfl::*****:

He tried to troll back but his Minn Kota died as well.:rotfl:

Where'd you go ride to Tim?

Bay......few reds, rough water

Yea I figured it would be rough with all that wind. Where you docked at?

Dink do not lie. You know your MERC broke down again....49 hours....:*****::*****:That little Alum. boat towed you in....:*****:

Maxie Pierce........never heard of one catching fire before, can't be good for it?? Renee, my motor ran great again today......kickin up mud most of the time.........she's a beast!

Well it should since you had it rebuilt after only 49 hours.....Hope it last you to at least 100 hours this time...:D Good luck...

Funny part is you created this thread acting like you had to tow me one time which we know both now I never had to be towed in......I do not understand your point for this thread...

I'd be real surprised if I didn't get 500 hours out of it.......

thats still not that much

Then repower!! 200 opti!!

I agree, I am sure that is NOT good.....just like finding metal shaving mixed in with your oil.......;)

I had a 200 Mercury for 14 years with hardly any problems.
I am on my first Yamaha with just around 90 hours or so.
Just hope it lasts as long as the Mercury. Then I will be
happy.
