Champ,

I can't count the number of times you have helped myself and thousands of others on these boards. Get some well deserved rest. Hope you make it back.

Thanks for everything you do for us.

ChampioNman.... I agree whole heartedly with what everyone else has said to you. I didnt own an Evinrude outboard until last year,and your knowledge to me and obviously everyone else is priceless.Every time I posted a question on here,you ALWAYS gave me the info I needed to know.For that I say THANK YOU! Take yourself a break, but I for one hope you do return. Happy Holidays

ChampioNman -- Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you and yours also. Anyone that has read this site very long know the value of your input. I take your word over anyone else if there is a conflict. You have helped a lot of people keep their motors running. I always look at your input just to learn more about my 1990 200 XP -- and outboard motors in general. I wished I had my 1990 new again. I believe with the knowledge I have picked up from your input I would have a better chance at keeping it running for another 20 years. Enjoy your time off -- but please come back to this site. You have too many boaters depending on you.

I really don't understand why everyone keeps saying such good things about Championman.

The boy ain't dead and these posts sound like a eulogy

I understand where you're coming from. If it means anything the advice you've given me and what I've read on your posts have been really helpful. Hope to hear from you soon and have a Merry Christmas!!!

The fact of anyone challenging you when you are very forthcoming with great information about our motors pisses me off. Take it w/ a grain of salt, Fred. You're a good man and great resource, but above all, you're OUR GREAT FRIEND!!!

Take a break, amigo and come back, at very least to hang out. You deserve it!

Merry Christmas, brotha!
