i just got back my old purple boat named barney. ohh how i have missed her. i have had this boat since 1999. pretty much learned behind her. best boat ever. solid as a rock. hate to see her in pain. but a shorted wire fried the starter and the ignition module one day. so the mission began. well i got a free starter from a good friend. that was a score. then some friends of mine rewired it no problem. another score. and usually the igition module is not really a big deal unless you have the corvette LT1. and you know barney is packin that LT1, that is why barney is such a hoss. but this was the big hit. the ignition module for the LT1 is a VERY specialty item. you can only get it from the indmar factory and it costs $1,000. so considering most ignition modules on cars cost about $150, this is a huge party foul. well to make along story short. i called a good friend at texas mastercraft. they got me the part at cost which was about half. huge score. well worth making a phone call. so the moral of the story is, do a little research, and its not what you know its who you know. people helping people is a beautiful thing. i am fortunate to have friends like i do. thanks
