Mike,
sorry I didnt call, had a rough weekend getting it ready, then when I got to LLoyd today I had no phone service. Well, it still has a few issues, like why the motor is not charging the batteries(or did i just hook up the gage wrong), the motor is not set deep enough(coulnt keep up with the fishin boats at idle in port evrgldes, unless I revved it up), suspect prop diameter may be a little small for the weight. Also need to straighten out a little hesitation at 1500, which was only annoying, since this is where I had to run to keep it moving in the no wake zones. saw the volt gage below 12, and put it back on the trailer, I will get it sorted out, and we will meet up soon.

Rick, looks good! At least she's floating and running! I was at Lake Boca yesterday late afternoon. Got to watch the lightning/thunder roll in.
Hey Mike, good seeing you guys on Sunday. We ditched out of there quick because somebody else was coming in and we didn't want to deal with breaking up the raft.

Yeah, we'll get it together, I was thinking Lake Boca next time out, launch in Delray, and get some running room for tuning.
