Magic:

The passage way in the lower is blocked so that won`t be a problem.

I went to Whihalla and the Playpen Sun. it was kinda cloudy all day until we were ready to head home.. isn`t that always the way it goes


Had it up to 72mph, 4 people full tank of gas. .. had to shut it down when it got too rough.

Very nice pics! We ran between Michigan City and the warm water beach yesterday. I heard the plan pen was packed and jumping yesterday. For the most part it was sunny all day on my side of the pond.

Magic, I`ll be at the scene party tommorrow..you goin??

I think we need a new thread that reads Active Wives club and requires pics to post.

My vote is Thunder Jugs.

sounds good to me

Did you push it to Its limits yet? Speed? RPM? with good contions?

went to the scene party 2 weeks ago and was at the races in michigan city all weekend.

Lake Michigan has been choppy everytime I`ve gone out. Not really sure why I even got a fast boat when I don`t take it over 50mph in the chop lol

The more power you have the less motor (rpm) you need to go 50. Im at 3400 doing 50. I top out at 73 right oround 5000, with a carb. 489ci, the builder told me 500hp

Good I`m glad I`m not just eating up gas

3000rpm is about 43mph per GPS gauge. 3400 is right there like you about 50mph. It`ll go to 5500rpm but I hit a no wake zone before it could get up to top speed.

Exploring the boat some more I found there is a choke on the rear carb controled via oil temp.
It wasnt closing all the way.. turns out easy spring adjustment.

Now maybe it`ll start a bit easier




One thing solved another turned up thou, when drive is all the way up water is getting in thru a 'seal'
gotta figure this one out now
