-> First of all, *yes* I'm behind in my mail. Second, how about one step 
better
-> like the actual parts books? It just so happens that a week after this 
ost
-> arrived, someone dropped off a boat with the very engine we were speaking
-> of. Not only that, he had all the parts manuals and knowing you needed 
them,
-> I photocopied them for you. Give me an address and they're yours. The 
ost?
-> Your eternal gratitude. 
        Thanks Dave; Yes you will always have my eternal gratude. Latly I 
eem
to be working on the motor more than I get to enjoy the the slap of the water
on her hull. The manuals will be a great help. I thought I found another
Penn Yan like mine here on the Island but it turned out to be a diffrent 
model.

        Is the boat they dropped off a Penn Yan also if so I'd be intersted 
n
knowing what kind of shape she was in. Mine was in great shape for being 
almost
30 years old. I enjoy the fact that I have a boat that dosen't fit into the
same old bayliner look that seems to be the norm on the Niag. river.
                                Thank you again
