Welcome.  Have you bought it yet?  Where was it raised? Rebuilt or
conversion engine?   I TOTALLY understand the pressure of getting your lady
to dip her foot, and it would suck if she got bit and never wanted to swim
again, so I think you are prudent in getting it right the first time.  Don't
ask me how I know.  :-)
