Too bad he won't know if he's got an engine that's naturally aspirated or not. :angry-smiley-038:

You guys kill me! I think cabin fever has sunk in. Spring can't get here fast enough (our my new fuel pumps).

Yeah, what's up with dat? I see you starting threads about CG documentation, thruhull exhaust, etc. Whazzup!? Spill it man! :grinser010:

John, come down here and Leverage my boat. :D

Buffer, barn, heat, and Captain are ready.

Wanted to but can't make it to Jammin on The James this year. We are doing the Tickfaw 200, Kentucky Lake, Our run here on Old Hickory, Knoxville, The Shootout, and Lake Cumberland. Gas better stay cheap!

Thanks for the info. Was kind of wondering about that. Nice to hear that you tried this set-up. Makes things alittle easier for me. Still looking at nose cones.

Does anyone know where the carpet insets are made for the 37's ? would like to order up some new ones and would rather not have to make templates and such.

Laz,

Pat orders and cuts the carpet custom for each boat, and then has them bound by a local guy.

Are the carpets in the boat now the right shape/size? If they are, I highly recommend www.rrtextiles.com . I made my own patterns and sent them out to them in Oregon, and was VERY happy with the results. Go with their 40oz.

I had mine made by Matworks, they send you a template kit free and send it back, they can write in the carpets also.
Price was also great.

Sounds good I will take a look at them, have everything apart now and was also wondering if anyone has done any billet fender holder's in the 37's ? Mine does not have the gen so there would be room in front of the motors, If so any pics ? or better ideas.

I highly recommend leaving the area in front of the motors uncluttered. I put my 4 fenders in the side combing panels. I don't have to raise or open anything to get to them.

Must be bigger then they look, it seemed like it would be a tight fit, will have to take a closer look when I am at the shop next time.

Good point! Depends on what you have to store. I have two types. The two big boys are in the forward part of the SB panel with one of my square fenders. The other square fender sits in the port panel behind my throwable. Leave just enough space for my lines. BTW, I'm seem to be missing a nice blue line....anybody end up with one last summer? :rolleyes: :drink:

Do you have engine flush fittings mounted in your diamond plate? I do...and need to leave that area easily accessible. Plus, unlike the PQ, it is so nice to be able to work on and clean the engines and bilge from INSIDE the engine compartment! :cool:

Chit guys what else do you want to store in your engine compartment.............Bikes??????

Why are you quoting me? :rolleyes:

You probably have one in yours! :grinser010:

He's got 2.

Also want to put it out there if anyone is interested, I have confirmed the May 18 & 19 date for the Tres Martin class here in MI and will have my boat in the water for the class if anyone would like to join in on those dates.
