I remember watching that one get built while working for A/T. Nice Boat! Congrats on the hours' achievement. I've even run into your old Fountain a few times!

Of course you were watching. We all know you didn't DO anything.

Bob, Thumbs up from China. And don't let Pat give you any crap. From my experience he has a lot to pass around, so I guess everyone has to take some

Maybe, if Pat would sell us a boat, we will see you on a future run....you never know.

Your boat still looks great. How long before you think you'll need to do something to the motors or maybe another AT ?

Ran great....steering is nice......Not that I condone this but I can actually get changed into my swim shorts while running along at 45 mph with no hands on the wheel ....and I switch the lanyard over also.... Had a little oil in the bilge....not sure if its residual from the o-ring phuck up I had but the fluid never went down and all in all it was a great weekend!!! Thanks for askin....

Yeah yeah, Pat had my hands tied behind my back!! lol Actually, I do remember going to alot of boat shows and living out of a suitcase a few days at a time.....but then again, the fumes from freshly sprayed gel coat early in the morning could've damaged some memory brain cells!

RAddiction...Looks nice, we are @ 355 hours on our 99...I did a leak down test end of last year & all cylinders are btween 160& 200psi. I'm told that's fine. The one cylinder on each motor that is 160/165 concerns me, But boatfixr says not to worry, that one is characteristically lower due to the location. What do you think?
Considering Prochargers/Arizona Speed next season; full hydraulic steering first though.

Just be sane with the boost....#'s aren't bad. But the motors aren't set up for alot of boost.

Yes, we have done work over the years.. it is a boat right?? We are very familiar with the BOAT acronym.. "Break Out Another Thousand... or two.. or ... anyway, as I just write the checks... I'll have to tell Bob to respond with what's been done...

The engines are the 500 EFIs
