Thanks for the props on our run! I wish we had 235 gallons of fuel on board! Then we wouldn't have had to back off! The fuel gauge started jumping around and the boat started feeling a bit light... I backed down from 5,300 (flat) to 4,000 and we went into Newport for fuel. We put nearly 100 gallons in the boat (110/120 gallon tank)! We only got about 65 mph with the old motor...
Great running with you guys. That was a ton of fun! Hopefully we'll see you out in our ocean again soon!
You've got to put the video up on Youtube!
Later,
Sean

Yeah, it sure was fun watching you guys run. Scott and the other two guys onboard had never run in the ocean before so they were kind of blown away by it all! When's the new motor going in? Going to give Tank a call soon and try to put together a SB lunch run. Scott's hooked on the ocean now so we'll have to get him back out there soon.

Hey Al! The old motors already out (this afternoon). So hopefully shaking it down next weekend or the weekend after.
That 525SC is a gas hog at WOT. We figured we were going to have to stop, but we figured we'd stop in HB! I think I need an auxiliary tank, or I suppose I could run at less that full throttle... Nah, I need an auxilary tank!
Oh yah, and I'd love to get up and run in SB. Let me know!

hey there... saw your Baja when i was walking around on the docks.. it looked nice..
the wife and i just came down on Sat AM to hear and watch you guys leave.. Maybe next year i'll put in the 23 in the run, but i don't want to be laughed at due to the size LOL...
When ever you come back out to Long Beach, hit me up and i'll launch the 23 for a bit..
