Just looking for something in mid 60s with nice cabin and silent choice. We boat the Mississippi river. Police starting to crack down on loud pipes even here.
Thanks for the help
Back the boat in using the electric over hydraulic brakes on the MYCO welded aluminum trailer. Turn key on starboard engine until fuel pressure gauge is at 15 psi. Start EFI engine with throttle @ idle. While starboard engine is warming up repete sequence on port engine. Wait about 5 minutes for warm up. Unhook the winch strap. Shift both transmissions into reverse. Slowly apply a little throttle to back the boat off the trailer.

Love the boat, motors and drives and diesel gen. Great package. Just wonder how the big boat rides and handles with a load on slow cruise with the 5s. Say 30 mph.
Boat will plane @ 17-19 MPH depending on load. 3500 RPM is 45 to 50 MPH depending on load. I set her up to crusie @ 50 MPH with out working the engines too hard. She weighs about 12500 lbs with a full load of fuel and two people. I have had as many as eight people and a full load of fuel. She did struggle a little but she did plane off at about 19 MPH. Once the first step breaks suction you are up and running.

Make sure you are ready to write the check. Because once you ride in it your wife will be making you write a check.

I like your speedometer! The best one made :D

Yes, it works great. However when you trailer to a new location it takes a while for it to link up and come on. In home waters where it knows where it is, and when it finds itself in stange places, the Nordskog works great. You can also use the speed over ground on the C map to double check each other.

Joe any pics or video of boat up and running.

Not that I know of.

Joes boat is awesome. The mufflers make the boat sound very very tame. I have the same engines and my wife drives our boat all the time and around the dock. Whoever gets it will be getting alot of boat motor and trailer for the money.
