New Life

Just had the 312 engine rebuilt on my Nautique. What a great feeling to hear that engine run as it did when it was new. She is a real head turner as a 1965 boat.

btw... fill us in on what was all done to the engine and what you found wrong?

Who did the rebuild?

Quite simple Jbear. I use Microsoft Paint.

Step 1:

Right click on the photo/image you wish to add things to and click "open with Microsoft Paint"



Step 2:

Select the boarder and fill colors of the shapes (arrow in this case) you wish to add to the image.



Step 3:

In the "Shapes" box at the top, select the shape you wish to insert.



Step 4:

Select a point on the image by clicking the mouse and dragging it until you get the size and width of the shape you want.



Step 5 (optional):

Right click the shape to add fill (Color 2 from the top of the screen).



Step 6:

Enjoy your work (repeat steps 2-5 to add additional shapes to the same photo).



I write SOPs all the time at work, so these are a breeze. If you have any other questions, let me know.
