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.

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.

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.

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.
