Just need to finalize harness and hope to start them up this weekend on the stand and pray the smart craft works!

Killer graphix, kinda looks like the writing was done by the Flintstones, bold, old school. Merc needs a new logo, the capital M hidden behind a waterslide??? Should be some dude with fast wings on and lightning bolts firing out of his a$$.

Motor Start Up

After a lot of hard work and money spent finally got to the point of being able to start them up and check out all the sensor on the computer, check for leaks etc. All was perfect. The last hurdle is I still have an issue getting the smartcraft to work on my instruments. Should have that worked out in the coming weeks after the Fort Lauderdale Boat Show. If anyone is down for the show stop by and say hello. We are in the Electronics Tent at Bahia Mar.
Here is two short video clips!
