It's set at 5600. The pic of my gps was running against the tide. I'm also running a conservative timing advance. Just figured if everything was running good why mess with it, but now I'm wondering what if. lol

Thanks For all the well wishes, I will be in Lake George this week and after that I should be splashing it in NorthEast, Md as often as I can. Stop by and say hi if you see us.

Polishing the Fenders on the Trailer and doing all the other detail work. It's alot of Elbow Grease - but it's looking good.

Gonna be doing some prop testing once we get a handle on Pantera 101 - but for now not crashing into the Docks or damaging or sinking the Boat seem like my top priorities.

Getting a handle on the spatial characteristics of a new boat are always the initial challenge.

A good friend told me when he was teaching me how to drive my Donzi - never approach any Dock or Pier any faster than you are willing to hit it! Always has worked for me - less is more.

Danny, you now have a very forgiving and easy boat to drive.
Not terribly sensitive to settings and normally very predictable to drive. Very different from smaller Donzis, although they are very fun. However, no doubt everything changes at over 80!
