No worries. Artie said you were out. Kipper did the survey. Just got the report this morning. No show stoppers, no big deals.

They might, but that will be the top end. We had 3 on the boat, full water, and full fuel. Glass smooth, Needs a bottom cleaning. Top was on, and didn't get the chance to play with getting it trimmed up for speed. All that being said, 46 kts at 4800 rpm, WOT. What amazed me was how quickly the boat accelerated from any speed. I'm looking to take it out next week and make a few WOT runs to see how it likes to run.
