Bob,
My T 8 is so old that it's a 2 stroker, thus the weight difference. I have
the 20 inch shaft. I'm really glad the new medication is working for you
and you  are going to continue sailing.

approved on Feb 12th and I started on Feb 20th.  Doing so well  toward a
remission we pulled the for sale ad.  We want to sail  more!

Just ordered the new traveler!  {:>)

BTW  how long is the shaft on the T 8?  I really like the weight compared
to  the Y9.9's 98#.

Cheers and Thanks for You Positive Thoughts on my CLL  Fight!

Atlantic, it is nice to have the power to fight the tides into  and out of
the inlets.  Also a few times caught out in an unexpected  thunder storm on
the inter coastal or on the St. Lucie River we needed the  power to get home
or to a place of refuge.

 My point,  I learned to sail on boats without motors.  I hate them!  But
when  you need them...
