RE: Lehman Starting Issues

Y'know what?* I'm going to defend Marin at this point...* The OP asked a question about starting a FL and Marin offered several helpful posts in response.* Until someone said why do you hate FL so much did he come back and say "by today's standards" they are crap, which is a true statement.

Problem is on this forum most people have very old diesels and so qualifying by today's standards is hardly applicable.

So I'll tell my friends from now on, "I'm going out this weekend on my old boat which is powered by old and sturdy diesels, which by the way are crap by today's standards, but do still function and would be very expensive to replace.* I can get parts easily and do some of the mechanical work on them myself, but don't forget they are still crap by today's standards."

Sorry, I just can't help making fun...* Maybe a more positive spin might make people happier...
