Hi all Awesome owners. Have finally gotten my boat toghether in Houston TX. will finish paint next month and be ready for spring fun!
Complete rebuild including new engines, (540 blower 850 hp) drives ( imco extreme) new controls and gauges (lavorsi) , wiring and electronics! Hope to water test next week if temp is 70 or better. will advise results and post photos soon. Any advice on props will be appreciated. will run the first time with the 30 pitch 4 blades bravos I had with the old drives then plan to get 5 or 6 blade props to improve performance and control- thanks for any advice- James
