I am told that with the new power tillers the big motors are easy to drive. We had a 225 opti tiller in last year. I personally think any tiller over 20hp is scary to drive, I almost lost it with a 40 once and refuse to try it again. Give me a steering wheel please.

The box looks killer, heck there is the perfect place for that 25" v8 you showed me :up:

You know, it might look good if you used a tiller handle for the flag.

If this one does get replaced (Smashed, or bullet holes LoL) it will be one with a merc feel for sure. I already have a friend that wants a new one but as a merc and I might take him up on it next weekend.

Conversely, my father has a '63 "Fastwin" 18hp (same style) he bought new and that was/is a great motor.

Black, White, It doesn't matter to me as long as it makes my boat go. :up:

Well, Here it is... Nothing fancy or over the top. Just wanted something different and I had some scrap pieces of black vinyl so I used a piece up.

Now if this wind ever dies down I just might walk my *** all the way down my muddy driveway and replace my mailbox with a nice new shinny one that doesn't collect and hold water. Nothing like soggy bills. :pound:
