    Sorry it took so long for me get back in business. For months I couldn't log on. Pictured on my boat here is a 1989 150hp Evinrude XP. For some reason after I had Carb kits put in it, and replaced the plastic float bowls with aluminum ones, it never ran right after that. When ever pulling a skier when ever you hit the throttle it would bogg (starve for fuel) and usually fall flat on it's face! Well it ticked me off one too many times so I put it on ebay, sold it, and bought the center motor off Badgerlands old triple rig. Which is a 150hp 2000 Evinrude Ficht. Now I could not be happier or ask for a nicer running motor!

    Yes that is a forward facing bench in the back. It use to be in my 1968 18 footer that I bought form a former member of badgerland in 1998. That old 68 had a balsa wood core in the floor and over the years it became warped to the point of no return so I had to get rid of it.
