It's pretty close. Some prop tweaking and a few cosmetics and it'll be done. The gear ratio is 1.5
T Didn't it have 1.35's on there before ? Why did ya decide to go to the 1.5's and do you like it better ? Trailer looks nice is that new too? Jon |

In the water.
Notice that the sunpad is not on the engine hatch. I anticipated that the hatch would be up and down all weekend with wrenching going on in the engine compartment. I made the decision to leave the hatch and rear seat head-rests off so that we could avoid the greasy hand print syndrome. Well, I was completely wrong. A single adjustment to the throttle position sensor and we were off and running. That's a real testament to the quality of the design / build work done by Teague on the motors, and the painfully detailed installation work done by McManus' team. My thanks to both organizations for a successful sea trial. I am very pleased with the results. To answer some questions: Yes, it did have 1.35 drives before. We installed bigger power than before and empirical data from other Apache boats indicated that 1.5 ratio drives would be the correct choice. The trailer has also been completely refurbished. Thanks for your kind comments. Tom |
