your superboat made it her this morning. It is cold and raining, so I haven't had a chance to dig into her yet, but she got here ahead of schedule :D

That is great she got there.
The cover is not all that waterproof so you might want to cover it with a trap.
The seats and such are in boxes and might get soggy.
I have the receipt for the tires and bearings on the trailer and I'll send it to you. I forgot to put it in the boat.
Did you get the Titles?
Keep us up to date with your project; it helps us Yankees make it through the cold months...:cool-smiley-011:

Hey Chad,
Get to work, we need progress pictures.:D
You had me out in the dark in 15° weather strapping those seats to a skid.:p
Man I'm glad you decided to take the whole boat off my hands.:cool-smiley-026:
Now I have room in my driveway for the new rig.:cool-smiley-027:

step 1, remove gimbal and install on new boat == completed :)

no extention box?

Nice!
How far below the V is the prop shaft?

no that was just a pipe dream for me :D:D Maybe next year, I just had an idea and wanted to see if anyone had put one on a banana thus far

we didn't mount the drive, just rolled it up to the transom assembly. How do you measure it, straight edge the bottom of the V out to where the propshaft is and measure 90 degrees straight down ?? My bro said it looked about right, but he is an arneson guy :evilb::evilb: go figure

it took an act of god to get that transom assembly off your old boat, you must have used 5200 to mount it, lol :party-smiley-004::evilb:

I think 4200, but maybe 5200, can't remember.

As for the height of the drive:
The X dim is from the crankshaft center to the bottom of the boat. You want to be around 17-1/2" with a standard length drive. This would put the prop 4-1/2 to 5" below the bottom.
I believe this is where you want to set it up to run 3 and 4 blade props.
Give me a call if you want to talk about drive height and props. I've done a lot of testing on similar hulls.
You can also compare to the Super; it was right on the money.
