Hi Guys, been keepin up somewhat, but decided several month ago, Hawaii was just a little too expensive, so we are now back in Cheyenne Wy, go figure. Anyway, having the Reelentless in Kona has spoiled me, so have been looking for a B-20 to make a statement with on our water here in Wyoming. Found a Moppie down in Missouri, and will pick it up this week--Question, it is original, 6 cylinder JIMMY, when growing up in the 50's, this was a hot engine?? What is wrong with it? What kind of cruise can I expect, and why would I want to repace it. I'm kinda dumb about the whole thing, but think it will be fun to have a unique boat up here. Any comments about what I might expect--appreciated, and remember, there is still a faithful in Kona, who runs the tackle shop. Regards, Bill T
