Hey dude, long time no hear - boating season over now, so expect to see a little more of your journalistic prowess. Have followed this thread half heartedly. Some of us are still having - another sh#*ty day in paradise. After all " life IS a compromise " but at the end of the day it's the same V1, VR and Shutdown Checklist - it's just what you get out of it. Me...... can't complain still the same flea with the same dog; it's symbiosis in perfection, still able to do all that I wanted to, the reason is tollerance and attitude. See..... compromise.
