You know Pete's just phishing for a reason to tell the world once again about the phenomenal lifetimes he gets out of his stuff. Wink

Usually measured in years not hours, since the stuff has to have been running to rack up some wear.

He conveniently forgets to mention how many years some of these boats have gone without running or seeing the water though

Keno, 

Yep, that is why I felt the need to provide too much detail .  LOL

I sure the hour meters used in the 1964 X 55 boats were specified to last for ever.

No meter in the 54 or the 64. The 77 the meter was replaced by the PO so, no phishing intended. 


54 Atom

77 Tique

64 X55 Dunphy

Keep it original, Pete

So for example, when you say that 25 years calculates out to 500 plus hours, is there some elaborate calculation or you just figure you must do 20 hours/year on average? Wink

Or maybe it's 8122 minus 8102 times the number of years

That is tough Ken- here is how I see it. 3 boats,24 hours in a day divided by that one day the ice is out...... 
Do you run all at 8 hours each or do you let the kids help out and run the risk of them creating more winter projects?
