Well the lower unit water seal went out no my Merc 60 4 stroke. Had it taken apart in PP and brought the parts back to AZ. to replace. I find it takes special tools to reset part of the seals so back down to get the boat and eng. The drive shaft for thAt thing is $ 600 bucks plus seals, bearings, may be some gears, gasket set and labor.
$ 1000.00.
And then there is Mrs. OH SHIT.

I built eight garages in Cholla Bay and none one did I make large enough for my boat. What was I thinking! I can only imagine what it will cost to tow it from California and back to fish with.
