Over the years this board has created friendships and experiences well beyond what I ever would have imagined. Asked Carl about how he felt about his 210s and the next day we are out. Beautiful yacht club, Great Kills Harbor is great as was the Marina cafe.
Carl is awesome, the boats not completely back together yet but man did he do a great job on the install. Very quiet and no vibration at idle, runs perfect although he wants to swap props to bring up the cruise speed. First time on an express and I get it. Cabin of an FBC, cockpit access of a Bahia.
Lots more to say but for now thanks Carl. Here is a photo dump from the day for those not on Facebook.

Great pictures Peter, feels like I was there!
I had hoped to get the boat back together and in better condition, before showing her off...but a ride was needed sooner than later so hopes were put aside. Thanks for the compliments, the tackle and please tell Shannon the bread is delicious.
It was a pleasure spending the morning with you and your family, thanks for coming. I wish I could have shown you around the club more, but with Covid all but the bathrooms and marina are closed and even what is open is members only at this point. The rules get bent a little bringing the occasional guests, it would be awkward for me to push them further.
Hopefully, the family and you now have a pretty good idea what Cummins 210's are like in our boats. I could have tried to explain, but nothing like unbiased first-hand knowledge.
