ThunderDan, that's an awesome testimonial. Did you get a chance to get to WOT? What was your top-end speed?

Advantage,

No, it was to unpredicatble with the waves to really get a chance to air it out. We were running with 496ho, hit 70 mph and had a bit of throttle left in her. Even when we got out of the ocean there are some many damn manatee zones and slow zones we did not get a chance. What a ride. I think that it would hit high seventies, maybe low eighties with 496ho, and with the 500efi's I bet we see 86-88 fully loaded.

Dan

Gordo and Todd,

I also checked on your boats when I was there and all is well.

Not yet on the bolsters, but from what I saw where your boat was sitting and the story of Pat's driving ability with the forklift, , you may just get some of that new paint..... Man is your boat still in great shape. It really looked great.

Miller,

The deprogramming only works for a 24hr period. Believe me I am still pushing for those changes that I e-mailed you and we will see them on my boat.

Now, that's what I want to hear. By the way, I've developed a few more ideas I can share and found some old one's that were off the first email to you. Plus, Pat asked me to look at photos of the new head and give him my thoughts. Well, let's just say that you might be interested in pursuing some of the challenges I posed to Pat. At least while you're de-programmed.

I am not sure who's boat it was, I think it maybe Pat's. I do not know, I never really asked. The headroom in the cabin was pretty good, I am 6ft and I had to bend down a bit, not too much though, something about a demo tape post going on between Pat and Active Thunder Todd. I will try and call you later, if not I will catch you tomorrow or you can call me in my office.
