No motor blues

Well I am still in Oriental looking for a motor to replace the one that was ripped off the back of the boat. Part of me is thinking about finding a friend who can take me to the spot I lost it and see if I can dive down and find it. But in the end I think I am going to build an electric inboard system. I will not have to worry about the waves knocking it off of the bracket in the back, and it will free the back up for a swimming platform. I will update as soon as something changes
