Default Here We Go Again III

Okay for those of you who have been on here for a couple of years know that the "Here We Go Again" threads have been some of the best posts on here. So I figured it has been slow around here so I thought a new thread was in order. So maybe an update from everyone...........

I am in finally I have a little prop testing to do and I am waiting for Richie Zul to come and dial everything in for me. From now on I am gonna buy new it is to stressfull and way to expensive to get the boat where I want it.

Thanks to Ocean for all that got done in a short time frame! Billy has been extremely helpful! Chuck as always did an amazing job rigging! But with out Ken Klietz(spelling?) the boat would not be together. Ken saved the day, with the head change the hatch arm and hyraulic ram would not fit between the headers. With the drive change to IMCO SCX's the hydraullic steering angle changed and Ken made some custom klevis for the rams.

I ran fine for 10 hours, then chased an ignition problem for 2 weeks. Pretty sure were good to go now. Also spaced drives 1" to try and reduce prop slip from 18%
