Wasn't Gold digger a canopied boat? And how did that boat run? The first Pleasure Mystic being rigged now, so we'll see how that performs.
http://www.offshoreonly.com/classifi...o31952-en.html Dean That Mystic you attatched link to looks beautiful! Personally I like 6 seats because being single means I have 5 seats for women, or 4 and a wingman! :drink: My odds are much better with 5 than 3 :grinser010: but thats gonna be one awesome ride!! |

This is a really good thread....
Dustin, 167 is great, sounds like you have more in it.:coolcowboy: Instead of watching the laptop, I decided to video tape the speed. What I should've been watching is why the port motor was down 700rpm and 25lbs of fuel psi, still holding 167!!! Only reason it didn't hurt itself was that it was so lean, it didn't have enough temp to burn! So now I'm back to being McGeek in the boat, just holding the laptop!:drink: |

As far as the rocker goes, Outerlimits did the bottom work on MY Way, and was never offered the opportunity to even take a second look at Man of Steel, which we would have been happy to do. OL. did have a chance to do the bottom of Zuperman. The boat whent back for the work, but they chose to put a 3/8 notch in the bottom rear step intead of correcting it the proper way. Skater is now doing it correct, and that is the end of the story. The owner is now happy and moving on with things. |
I truly wish the trans didn't blow in Jacksonville because many would've seen what they can do. At Desert Storm, we finished putting the motor in at 2am and drove 90mph, umm wait, if there's any cops, we drove 55 to get to havasu :) We still went 167mph and that only had 1230hp with severe valve float because the wrong push rods were installed, and 1 motor was down 20psi of fuel psi because one of the pumps decided flow was not important!
Also, Justice ran 1075's in KW, it takes race fuel to go along with computer changes, and he plans on using that boat A LOT so 1200's are not really in his plans.[/QUOTE] You guys seem to have a lot of engine, transmission, belt, pump, pushrod, pressure, etc etc etc issues. Also. when going that fast. It's a good idea to watch where you are going and not have you eyes on the labtop you know. Just a couple thoughts !!!! |
