Excellent video and very good job.

I am restoring a 1976 170 with a 1980 70 hp Evinrude. How is your performance with your 70 hp..?

Thought I noticed the Shepley logo on your shirt.........I was starting to think this was strictly a south of the Mason/Dixon line kind of site;-)

plenty of power as the boat is pretty light. Best thing though is the fuel Economy. Can be out all day on about 7 gals and still get home!

Where did you get the rubber straps for it? If anyone else knows let me know. I covered the metal straps with braided, clear pvc tubing. Is that okay as well?

I cut up an old truck mud flap into strips. very important not to let metal bands contact tank. I have seen others use clear plastic tube but I perfer flat rubber,

Even though you used 3 clamps on the fill line the clamps should be turned in opposite directions. Same way on the other hoses.
