Mr. Gadgets How It Running
Hi,
How is your boat running good I hope. How about your new prop. I do want to buy your 25 pitch Mirage. It is sold OK. What price do you want $200 or more. Just let me or I will see you this weekend. Thank you for letting me use it for a month before I buy it. I talked to Mercury Racing Props today and they said they can make the 25 it spin like my 23 with cup. Around 5350 rpms. So that should be about 1 or 2 more mph. So that should work for the Shootout. Around 72 we hope.

Hi Arron,
Yes my boat is still running and pretty good at that. I am starting to lean on it a bit more, still trying to figure out how to drive it in the choppy stuff. I suspect I have to rid my fears and let it fly to see if I can get on top of it.. but so far not that many trips where I am alone to do that.
I am in Colorado at the moment with friends and their 28' Magic. We are planning a ride this week and test the prop that I brought with me on the plane. I need to buy a box to transport props, so they will insure it. In a cardboard box they wont.
As far as the prop goes, I'll let you have it for $225 and beer! That will help a little toward the lab finish.. I hope that is the ticket for you for LOTO. I will be back in town next Sunday nite so we can meet up the following week and settle up.
