My new 26' OUTLAW
SubscribeWelcome to the 26 club!
Do your research... there is a ton on information out there and everyone has an opinion (right and wrong). If you do anything just make sure you do it right and don't plan on thinking you'll make money or even break even for that matter. But if it is what you want then start talking to others and reading.
Have fun and good luck with her!

What prop are you running?
I would leave it alone and enjoy your boating, do not get caught up in the speed bug. Those of us that have it are constantly trying to go faster and are never satisfied. My boat ran 55 stock now I have it up to 74, still not satisfied. There are guys on here that run 100MPH and still not happy. There is always a faster boat, accept it and you will be alot happier.

I know a few people with that boat, it has a better ride than the 25OL but it is slower. Most of them seem to run about 63 so I think you are close on speed.What prop are you running?

It is going well for the most part. I just noticed my drive oil line fitting had a small crack in it! Glad I found it now rather after noticing an oil slick. Hopefully the 4200 will be at the door today so I can get the extension box on this afternoon. Originally Posted by jeffswav

What exactly is a -2 shorty?Originally Posted by pacalim1965@yaho
Find a friend that will loan you a -2 shortie and see if your speed increases. 50/50 chance that it will. My 27 boss got real happy when i went to the shortie.

You could do one of these and sell your engine to recover some of the expence..

Sell your HO for around $9000.00 which I believe is doable because of the low hours and you may be only out $4000-$5000.00 tops.
Id prefer to stick with my engine just cause I know where it has been, and only has 50HRS!Originally Posted by Twin-Kyle
