Wife said, I think we should buy the new motor!

Woo-hoo!
Not the big power up that some of you guys can do, but going to swap out a 21 year old 30hp Nissan 2 stroke for a new Tohatsu 40hp 4 stroke.
I know I'm replacing the transom when we take it out of the water for the season so the 4-stroke won't get used until spring, but...
Also going to buy a new console (the small one) from pontoonstuff. And the drop down "changing room". And possibly new bimini fabric.
Likely going to get new switches to install in the new console (the current ones work, but they're kinda beat up) and a couple of courtesy lights. I think I can reuse my existing steering rig, but... I don't know.
OH! And going to get a Luggable Loo to have some kind of potty on the boat. And a second 6-gallon tank to extend our range. And a handheld VHF radio to make traversing the locks easier.
Wow.... between all this and brakes on the Jaguar AND the Santa Fe... looks like we're tapping retirement accounts!
