And get this, put a new battery in my GPS antenna and still didn't work. Call Livorsi and find out that they have to do some reprogramming along with the new battery and they don't do the battery change/reprogram service anymore. New antenna on the way. This one doesn't have a battery.

Man I am so behind! I got the 850s done and started all over with a set of 1000s
Now its time to splash and I have one engine ready to install.
The other block is still in the crate. I have everything to build it.
Just have to get it to the machine shop for its first go around.
I pulled the Sonic out of the garage and gave it a good going over. Im going to put it in tomorrow.
Maby the Thunder will be sone soon.

You thought 850's weren't going be enough in a 32????

850's should put the boat well into the triple digits. Probably 110mph or so and will be plenty to destroy the drives and leave stains in your shorts

Quick question for the CULT. I'v noticed that some of you guys have a sleeve on your engine hatch actuator that is blue and has "active thunder" on it. I have finished all my projects as of today and thought that would be a nice finishing touch.

I don't think I've seen this sleeve before......Pics?

It may be a little late for a winter project but my drives are off and getting a checkup. I got a call today that one of them was about to come apart. I guess I'm in for a set of gears and bearings. Man I love this hobby!
