He knows a lot about boats. And fishing.

Hi Kxxxxxx!
    Good talking with you last night....even though I was sad to hear your bad news about your prop- shaft and motor problems. I really am envious of your ability to just deal with these kind of things in such a positive manner. Boats are probably even worse than a car in that there always seems like something needs doing on them ( wood boats even more so). I was thinking after talking to you that you could probably just leave the existing motor in place (as long as your thru hull fitting/packing is not damaged and leaking), and make a decision later on to either remove it when you have the boat out of the water / or fix the shaft and motor !As I say unless it's leaking there's no reason to take immediate action...Don't you think? Anyway best of luck with your project to install that new outboard motor!
   Haven't been out fishing yet...but may try try XXXXX or XXXXX lake this weekend. Had a club meeting last Wed. and the talk was that things were starting to happen on the local lakes. Have you been out lately or is the river up and wild now?
  Work on this new house for Xxxxx is going along pretty good . What a house.....not real big but really complex. Ultra-modern which is a change for Brian. It has 2 flat (green) roofs that have decks off them, so that when your out on the decks your surrounded by wild flower plantings. At least thats the idea!
  Anyway, keep the spirits up, and best of luck with your boat projects. Will keep in touch and hopefully make it over to see you sometime in the near future!
