It was launch eve, and I'm mounting my motor.
Filled the tank with fresh fuel; ran the fuel line.
Changed the engine oil.
The old oil was black tar (I hadn't changed it last year).
Drained the lower unit oil.
It was clean, no water in the lower unit.
I then realized that I left my lower unit oil pump at home.
Have to wait until tomorrow.
Torqued the keel bolts to the Catalina spec of 75 ft lbs.
Mounted the tiller on the rudder.
It was 6pm, time for the launch party diner, and much deserved refreshments.
