RE: [omc-boats] RE: omc-boats-digest V1 #254

Thanks for all of the info. We're going in to negotiate the final deal on an
'05 Odyssey this week, and have decided to go with the full Honda towing
package (incl. tranny and power steering cooler). This will bring the towing
capacity up to 3500 lbs with no warranty concerns.

Good luck with the Sweet 16. I'd say 'I'll race you' into the water, but at
this pace mine'll be a Smithsonian piece before I get her launched ;-).
Gonna try to at least get the motor wired, started and take it for a test
ride this summer.

According to the literature I have, the 16 foot hull weighs 810 lbs. Adding

another 400 lbs or so for the motor, plus fuel, gear, and the trailer
weight, should give you a reasonable guess. May want to add 10% or 15% to
the total for good measure.

I'm thinking this is finally the year for my Sweet 16 to make it in the
water...still lots of work to do. I believe I located a good vintage 75 hp
for her thanks to some great folks from the Antique Outboard Club who set up

a tent anually at the Antique and Classic Boat Festival in St. Michaels, Md.

  If any of you attend this event e-mail me. Perhaps we can get an OMC
corral allocated to us.

Good luck with your projects, and good boating!

Joe
