Thank you MTC

I picked up a small center console for my grandson and I to fish inshore, back bays and rivers with. I wanted to repower it with a 90 HP four stroke that I picked up very reasonable. I had contacted MTC (Tom Lamaire) about rigging the motor which involved removing the old power, cables, wiring, etc. And then re-rigging for the new motor.
Tom was able to squeeze me into his busy schedule and rig the boat for me at an very reasonable rate. Tom is located on the MA South Shore and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him if anyone needs any work done to their boats. I believe Tom handles all aspects of boat and motor repairs. Just contact him and he'll treat you right.
Thanks again Tom.

Yea, she is running good. I've had her out a couple of times in South River and Dux Bay. No fish but motor is purring. I can't wait to get out again soon. You'll have a blast with your boat. She looks like she'll have plenty of power! Keep an eye out for a Carolina Skiff J16 and be sure not to swamp me with your wake!
