If We Were Electric: StoriesIf We Were Electric's twelve stories celebrate New Orleans in all of its beautiful peculiarities: macabre and magical, muddy and exquisite, sensual and spiritual. The stunning debut collection finds its characters in moments of desire and despair, often stuck on the verge of a great metamorphosis, but burdened by some unreasonable love. These are stories about missed opportunities, about people on the outside who don't fit in, about the consequences

If We Were Electric's twelve stories celebrate New Orleans in all of its beautiful peculiarities: macabre and magical, muddy and exquisite, sensual and spiritual. The stunning debut collection finds its characters in moments of desire and despair, often stuck on the verge of a great metamorphosis, but burdened by some unreasonable love. These are stories about missed opportunities, about people on the outside who don't fit in, about the consequences of not mustering enough courage to overcome the binds.

In "Feux Follet," an old man's grief attracts supernatural lights in the dark Louisiana swamps. An exploding transformer's raw, unnerving energy in the title story matches the strange, ferocious temper of an unlucky hustler. "Blackout" sets the profound numbness of a young man physically abused by his mentally unstable partner beside the meaningful beauty of an unexpected moment of joy with someone else. The teenage narrator in "Before Las Blancas" is so overwhelmed by his sexuality that he abandons everything and everyone he's known to live in a happy illusion . . . in Mexico. And "Where It Takes Us" is a poignant, understated snapshot of a gay man who accompanies his straight, HIV-positive brother to the race track to bond again.

Direct replacement on my 95 SeaRay 175
Size: PP67-712 V1
My boat started to have issues with not turning over when I used the ignition switch. Replaced the switch and had no effect. Replaced the solenoid and that fixed the problem. Good price, so I replaced all 3 solenoids (Trim/ starter). Solenoids had all needed hardware (nuts/washers)

They Fixed My Boat
Size: PP67-712 V1
My boat wouldn’t start, and the outdrive wouldn’t go up or down. So I bought three of these solenoids and replaced the starter and both trim motor solenoids/relays. Now it starts right up with no problems and the trim motor is working again also. I have a 2006 Stingray boat.

Poor quality
Size: PP67-712 V1
Poor quality. Replaced a starter solenoid on a mercruser 4.3. Right off install it would click but not make a connection to start motor. Confirmed this was the culprit by jumping the terminals. After testing multiple times found it worked a little less than half the time.
