Last September i blew the port engine off the coast of Delaware. Spent the winter rebuilding her. Had cylinder #5 bored .020" over. Installed new rings in all the cylinders. Spent the weekend at Indian River Marinia boat worked flawless. Short video of the boat back in action again

Sweet! I bet that feels good, John!

You did all the work yourself? How did that go for you?

Yes it felt good. I did all the work myself except i sent the block out to be bored and had the other clyinders honed to clean them up.Between the machine work and parts i have around 500 bucks in that engine. Got lucky that the block and crank was still reusable. I work at a chevy dealer so doing mechanical work isn't a problem. Plus i also have the yamaha service manual for my engines which greatly helped.
