Problem is the boat is in our yard and the motor is upstairs in my closet,,,dont you love it..we will get it back in the water in the next few days as people will want to run it before buying it,,,the boat is set up with cables etc for an electric start engine..that was how it was set up a few yrs ago when we bought it. Since then we got a newer, better motor and just pull start it...quite comfy with the extension arm,,,,will post photo soon, but we have had a few interested people to the house waiting to run it.
