Thanks Bill! I just want to pass what I have learned with this boat. Seems I learn something new every time I hit the water.

I should be able to sea trial on Sunday. I hope!:rolleyes:

Thanks for all your input gentlemen, after installing 6lb pulley and some minor mods, we did another trial run today. 63 degrees, light chop. 26p bravo 2x cup prop. boat ran extremely strong!!! boat also staightened out with minor chine.Hit rev limiter, with some throttle left. 5400 rpm, about 82mph. Exelleration from 65 to 80 was amazing! Called hydromotive( todd, gary), sending me a 27p Q4 to start.Tryed to get me to erase rev limiter for extra rpm and hp, do not know how to do this with carb engine at this time.Will let you know how next prop works. Boat should run middle 80's.If you have any other suggestions please keep it coming. thanx Mark
