New boat project (part II)

[WTL]

I'll call this part 2 since I already tried it earlier in the year and the 1964 Evinrude, well it didn't work out.

Today, I bought a 1986 Johnson 28 horse outboard cheap to go on my boat. It cranks up right quickly and runs very well at all RPMs. I will have to research converting it from long shaft to short shaft. Also while I'm at it I'm sure a new impeller would be good. Gonna keep posting pics cause I'm a loud jerk who likes to see himself write. And also, althought it aint much to look at now, it will be the prettiest boat at the ramp soon enough... How many 14 foot boats do you see with decks, bow moutn TM and a console? Gonna try and make it as fast as possible too, hoping for 40 mph but that may be optimistic.
