Is it still "seat time" if you're actually on the headrest? :)
Must be hard to tear oneself away from the girls but boating is worth it and you get used to your boat a lot quicker without distractions.
Lookin good!

Inside flat water running = on top. ( struggle to see jetskis and small craft just sitting and the dropaway seat doesn't work currently)
Offshore unpredicable running = seated.

Only having fun, I'm sure you know the difference between the Broadwater and the real water outside.
Take care and enjoy!

look under the seat there should be a pin on each side. pull those pins and the seat bottom will drop out.

1,200 rpm @ idle is pretty high......I think at a true 2000hp with a 1.5 gear and around a 30p prop you should be touching 80

would have thought closer to 90 than 80

Okay 90............point is, it takes big power to push those fully dressed flat bottoms through the water

Don't I know it i push one every weekend lol, getting 90 with my #4’s and some stout injected gassers not making 1000 ponies so figured this guys hot rod with 1000’s and 33’s should run mid 90’s easy

Wow, 90mph with NA injected engines, where did I go wrong..... What cube?
I guess you can squeeze 90mph w/ 900hp??? perfect setup?

Sloppy. The comment about the jetskiis is bunk. Lower freeboard than mine and I have no problem seeing when I’m standing. Your boss is supposed to be 6’ tall. Poor excuse for a stupid decision.

Take the boat to BrandX and have it fixed correctly. Call Tres or Brad and learn to run the boat. If he doesn’t want to take the class I’d be happy to run it for him.
