IrishRogue Poon it! Poon it! Poon it! Registered: 08/08/06 Posts: 1714 Loc: Yarrow Point	A buddy is thinking about buying a used boat, current owner is down in Olympia. Anyone know/recommend a tech who he could hire to make a quick visit to the boat, do a compression test/and give him a mechanic's-eye view? _________________________ The charm of fishing is that it is the pursuit of what is elusive but attainable, a perpetual series of occasions for hope. -John Buchan
