Alright guys, I'm not a porno spammer I promise, and I'm not related to ChumBucket. 
I've often thought of naming my boat 'ChumStain' though. Anyways, I've recently acquired a 79 V20 with a 470 in/out and while I was doing some research on what I just bought, I came across this forum and I think it's awesome. It's nice to know there's a bunch of other people who like this boat as much as I do. I hope one day to fix my boat up to be as nice as many of yours. You'll probably be hearing from me later on when I seriously start my restoration. I have already found a lot of good information here and I'm glad to now be a part of this forum.

Reminds me of the Red Peters song about his dog Stain. He loved to call out his name. "Come Stain"!

Thanks everybody
Hey guys,I would like to thank you all for welcoming me to the forum. I cant wait for the weather to warm up and quit raining so I can start working on my boat,It seems my crankcase is full of chocolate milk, so that is the first of many issues I will be dealing with. Im hoping its just a cracked exhaust manifold. And to C Y, since we both have the same type of boat, im sure I will need to pick your brain at some point in the future, thanks in advance. And thanks everyone else for such a great forum!

In these times the question os how much gas does it use!!
The Sea Ox now has a 175 and I will tell you I thought it was going to be way under powered, but to my surprise is goes pretty nice and uses crap for gas!
I have Merc 2.4 prop 15 x 15 1/4 I top out right at 30 knots and cruz all day at 25 knots.
Drove 20 mies out and back and trolled 5 hours, never shut the motor off for 6 1/2 hours and only used $32 in gas!! I forget what gas was selling for at that time?? Begining of November.
CB was with me and when I called him to tell him he was No way.
By the way CB did you ever pay me for gas that trip??

MJ, if it uses crap for gas, there should be no shortage around here

As of yet, I haven't been able to take the boat out and run it, so I don't really know how fast it will go. I was actually gonna ask C Y that same question about his boat. I still have some issues I need to address before I can take the boat out. The boat sat for a while, so I need to rebuild the carburator. I also need a new impeller in the lower unit and change the fluid and after that I can take the pig out to the bay and see how fast it can run.
