Wowzer Zowzer - 135HP on a 15.5 tri-hull! That's pretty incredible. Typically those transoms were rated at about 50-75HP max. I bet it was a screamer. You're lucky that then engine didn't rip the aft half of the boat off!"Where the people fear the government you have tyranny. Where the government fears the people you have liberty."

Yes, as I recall Johnson brought out the 135hp outboard in 1973 and it was the biggest until about 1977 when they went to 140hp. I have no idea about the transom rating, but the little boat did fly - PowerCat Tri-Hull rings a bell.
Sorry for the hijack - back on topic...

Enjoy the little things in life, and you may look back one day and realize that they were really the BIG things.
