ok ok ....i lied. i told the ol lady i found a SWEET motor that i really really wanted! she said " you're not getting another motor until that one doesnt work any more....PERIOD" with the aid of this wonderful technology we have today i was sneaky enough to record this statement via cellphone.

i waited until she went to work and then i took action. after removing the water pump impeller i swapped props to a 23" (only time ill ever use this one i thought :mrgreen: ) filled her up and to the river i went. KABOOM!!! "oh no......what happened???" :

"the worst thing happened today honey.....the motor broke" :cry1: she responded..."what you gonna do?" i sent her the recording

all she said was "....you evil mother f*****" and hung up. :D
