To make sure this dead horse is well-beaten, I remember a posting a while back saying that, though it is spelled "pendant", it is pronounced "pennant", hence Howard is right all the way around. Also, there is a bunch of information on the MSOG site, as well as a running Owners Opinion Poll, all about outboards at http://msog.org/cfmods/outboards.cfm. We'd like to have your opinion on the subject. The input page can be accessed at the same url. Sure Don, send a pic or two of your cb scenario, if you want. Doug At 09:53 PM 7/24/02 -0400, you wrote:
Didn't know enough to correct you on either point. :-)

In a previous reply to Craig, I think I used the term Pennant for the line connecting to the CB. After having done a bit of research, I think the most correct term is Pendant. Pennant is an English variation of spelling for Pendant, but means something different than the short line we are talking about.
And for the M17, I also mentioned it would be a 3/8" line. Actually, I think it is larger....more like a 7/16" line. With that all cleared up, maybe I can go back to sleeping at night! : )
