Practice casting on grass. Get a tennis ball and put a slit into it which will allow lead to be inserted. Cast will not become stuck on a grass surface and will allow you to improve your technique .
Lady jane has the 90 ct with a 4 blade spitfire prop and has been a joy to operate and totally reliable over the 5 yrs .
hope you enjoy your new purchase.

My 2001 first gen Mariner 115hp efi is still going strong although it has needed some expensive tlc over the last couple of years including a new high pressure fuel pump and regulator and a new trim motor.
I try and keep the ol girl well serviced (as well as the motor) and she pushes my boat along at a respectable speed.(the motor not the ol girl)
Holes Bay Marine previously supplied the motor to the previous owner of Reflections 2 and have carried out all the maintenance and servicing on it.
It's a great motor and is performing better than ever.
Your new motor will have all the design upgrades and should last longer than mine which is in its 20th year and still going strong.
Enjoy it you will not be disappointed.

"you can exercise and need to stay 'local where possible'" - such ambiguous law, but it will hopefully become gain clarity soon! I was watching the news this am, seems to be the first time "local" has been used in legislation. Pete, don't book a trip in for mid Feb, that will.enaure the weather is ruined! Stay safe. R
