Picked up HTP's bolt on ride plate and shoe. Decided to start into it today. Everything was going well. First hole drilled perfectly although I noticed after the first 1/2 inch or so it went slow.

Went to the Avi boat bash. It was the third time putting the boat in the water. Been having trouble with the (OLD) Aggressor parts. First time out I broke the droop snoot off the the boat. Second time out I broke the clean out cover off. So the third time out was at the Avi bash. The boat ran...
