    Waves splashed against the boat‚ a steady stream of water shot out of the engine‚ the smell of exhaust created a thin fog on the water. The engine’s forty year slumber had come to an end. With the ferocity of a rudely awakened grizzly the engine propelled the boat through the glassy‚ cold water. My weeks of effort had finally paid off. The sixty year old boat engine was alive!
