that thing is going to rock

Hey you an assume job on your boat too. always reading your thread..

Iced your boat is one of my favorates....also liked your old heading pic, tried to get my wife to hold one of my polished sportmaster shortys, just didn't have the same effect ...
Syd was going to do that, got sick of taping lines and thought I'd get enough flak about the 90and half paint job, I had planned on painting mine that way for over a year and a half, and now 3 of them popped up, 4 with mine and that Fountain in the past 2 months, oh well at least I went with a different color, luv that paint scheme though it made my boat look 5 times longer, and its a easy fix if we have any docking mishaps..

Blew a drive. Frustrated

I hope so K, the boat weight is 7800 dry, I'm thinking at the very least, 800hp a side, I could be wrong... I'm just going off of what I'm reading on here right now from a few other guys that are running whipped 509s, and I know the XR drives might be and issue, but I'm hoping with a lighter boat than a topgun I might be ok....for awhile will see I guess, not only that I got a friend that loves rebuilding drives, his scarab panther runs about 96mph and he runs bravos ones:evilb:...Joe

Pete what drives were you running?? thought you had #6 on there...

Bmax and this one only had 5 hours when an upper bearing took a crap then metal went thru every thing. Not sure if im going to fix this summer yet or not. Im on the comittee for Boyne thunder and this is the 3rd year in a row that Ive not had my boat.

Wow 94 would sure be nice !!! It's awesome man you've got an admirer here!

Thanks man! It's been a long road for me so I know exactly what you are going through!!

Its been a few since I gave an update, Been doing paint touchups and redos, which I hate doing, all I got to say about it is, don't use 3ms double sided quick release foam pad on a Cig, to many 90degree angles on the older ones.....Also been working on mounting my water pickup from Teague, those guys are top notch, Adrian fixed me up and made a custom water pickup for me, its a work of art...then I shortened and put a slight angle, polished and mounted my Teague 450 switchable exhaust tips, ditched the mufflers, was going to go with dry exhaust but Maryland has been on the noise kick the last few years....and I also put the engine flush plate together, and started to put the top row of gauges together till [ATTACH=CONFIG]505356[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]505357[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]505358[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]505359[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]505360[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]505361[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]505362[/ATTACH]I dropped one of the bezels and chipped the sh+t out of it....another paint redo:lolhit: Oh I put a before pic of the stern, notice I got rid of the ski hook:evilb:

I really like seeing build threads like this . . . keep the pictures coming.
