Barron ready to fire up for the first time yesterday. Problem with starter engaging so hopefully today. JUST LOVE TO CHANGE THOSE STARTERS! Think it would almost be easier to yank the motor.

Looking good Gary! Where did you get those cool gold numbers? Youre going to love how that boat rides! What kind of horsepower is that? I also like those Cosby headers, I bet no one has heard of them! smile_sp

Fired the Barron up. She lit off on the first try! :D I just have one braded hose leaking. Was surprised to see a braided hose leak.
