You're very lucky a troop of Sea Monkey's didn't carry you away. -

Wasn't terrible at a state park beach. Antelope island maybe. I wouldn't recommend it as a beach destination tho. Figured I was there, I'm getting in it. -
The water looked and smelled disgusting with hundreds of thousands of birds sh*tting in there. About as gross as the Salton Sea. When I duck hunted there I didn't even want to touch the water. -

It's kinda gross with the algae in the summer but I got in it anyway. Wanted to see the increased bouyancy at work. You can kinda tuck yourself into a ball and you'll just float with your head above water. When dry off you look diamond encrusted with the salt. -

We went to the flats too. I dipped a tire on the rental car onto it just to say I’ve been there,but it was still pretty soft from winter melt. After seeing some moron in a BMW suv get dragged out of the muck I had no intention of repeating his stupidity. -
I've been out on the flats. It's like being on a different planet

Question
Mankato-Ice-Man
I was recently reminded that you do not under any circumstances trust anyone and / or take thier word for anything. I bought a used boat with a 1975 Merc 20 hp motor on it. He told me that it started and ran fine, but there was something wrong with it that robbed it of a few horse power. Well, I took it to a shop and was told that the lower crank case seal is out of it, thus not letting the bottom cylender fire at all. He said it is quite a job to replace this seal, big enough that he did not have time to take it on right now.
So my two fold question is:
Is this worth me fixing? The motor is in GREAT shape, not a scratch on it, starts very easily, great spark and compression, and idles well on the one cylender.
If I chose to sell it or trade it in on something else, what is it worth?
This the the fist boat I have ever owned, so any advice is VERY much appreciated.
Jeremy
