[Rhodes22-list] Elle's Motor Issues

[Philip]

Elle,
     Stan has said some of the manufacturers (like Yamaha) stopped making
their remote options and they have to be fabricated.  That may be why you
are having this problem now.  Once Stan gets on it, I am sure it will work.
When I asked him about it a few months ago, he said when I get the motor to
him and the boat is read, he can figure something out.  I trust him.

Philip

Thank, you, Mr. Toot. I am waiting for Stan to get
back from Fla.

What has me flummoxed is that this boat is no
different from the other R-22's (except the
wheel)...why should getting & mounting an engine &
controls be so difficult?? Others have the elect lift;
others have remote controls....?????

Just be nice, as a good friend has just moved to
Columbia SC & one of these days I (and the almost
-boat-dog) MAY just turn up on your doorstep......
