sportmaster lowers
 
dan,

hope all is well with the thunder, I read an article in june powerboat that the sportmasters work the best in apllications where the the center and above of the propshaft are out of the water as they would be on cats and it might hamper boats that have them lower because of its larger size to reduce prop blowout.

anyway goodluck!

Today's results at Lake X: Rick Conti at the helm, K/E 675s, Merc. Sportmaster cases @ 1.35 and 34 labs/5300 r's= 102.0. Is there more?.....maybe.

ROUGHSTUFF 06-27-2002 09:28 PM

OK Todd spill the beans, what's the rest of the story!

Ted G 06-27-2002 09:28 PM

Hey 102!!!

Rhymes with WOO HOO

thunderdan 06-27-2002 09:38 PM

I am happy with the final speed results. Now all Pat and I have to do is figure out how to work out the final details on who pays for the shortie lowers,what props to use etc.... I will post my overall experience sometime tomorrow. I am tired and need to get some sleep. I am hoping that Pat will have my punch list items completed tomorrow and the boat ships tomorrow night.

thunderdan 06-27-2002 09:57 PM

I will be woo hooing as soon as it crosses the Jersey state line.:D

Miller 06-27-2002 10:07 PM

Congratulations Dan! I know you must be pumped-up. I'm sure Pat will take care of the changes required by the dial-in, as you're the first boat with the changes and so I'm sure that the X dimension, lower units, props, etc. were all open to possibly changing as it was a learning experience. Pat seems to always go that extra mile to make you guys happy, so I'm sure that this will be no different. He'll just charge JASSMAN more when he orders a 42 next year to makeup the difference! :D

Again, congratulations. Those are great numbers.

Now, how did it plane and accelerate?

h2owarrior 06-27-2002 10:16 PM

Congrats Dan, I hope you enjoy that Bad Boy. I cannot wait to see the speed this Fall in the Thunder Run.:D :D

Miller, I am sure Pat is Lovin you right now:eek:


O.K. Mr. Jassby, What outdrives and props have you selected????? Will there be a change request in your future:D :D

jafo 06-27-2002 10:22 PM

I'm sure that it was worth the wait, Dan!
Sweet boat, and bragging rights for "dialed in at Lake X"!

Have Fun!!!!!!
