Thanks on the paint Boomer. Top speed numbers will come when I break the 525's in a little more. There's no doubt we top 90mph.

Don't blame you at all for wanting to get the motors broken in first, before pushing it.

What is the meaning behind REMEDY? (it could mean several things).

Second request... any cockpit pictures? I am interested to see the room in the cockpit, as it compares to the 37.

Some people have discipline, unlike others. :D Merc is OK with running it up for a few seconds, they just say don't leave it wide open. Your engines had an hour of dyno time on them before they left the factory, at least that is what they told me on mine.

Cool - we are just outside of Center Harbor on Black Cat Isl., I will be up that weekend (as I am with most), have to see if I can find you, would love to see that up close. I know that area well, is it the house with the Fountain at the dock, (across from the church on Bear)?

You found it. Name on the fountain is "Makes My Day".

What boat do you have, we'll keep an eye out.

The cockpit is identicle in size to the 37. The engine compartment gave up the room, although there's still plenty of space in there. No good pics of it at the moment.

Pushing the sticks all the way forward for a few seconds is part of breaking the motors in, but obviously not long enough to give top speed runs.
