I just got a 2002 Osprey 175 with very low hours. Can't wait to take it to Daytona and go out on the Halifax and out into the bay!!!

It's a real sweet boat.  Just about perfect if you ask me.  Enjoy!

Hey Jimbo,

Is your 115 running OK now?

Thats great news Capt Bill.  I love my 170.  (which oddly enough is 17'6" long I wonder if the just changed the name in 1988)

Yep I'm back in business, sounds a little rough at low speeds but I believe that is because I have been using fuel / oil  mixture in my fuel tank to compensate for running with the fuel in my oil tank issue because of faulty valve, as we discussed.  Per recommendation of my mechanic.  That might've been confusing...
