Thanks brother! I don’t think the x is abnormally high. The water was actually rougher than it looked and we were going straight into the swell when my kid took that video. I even had the drives tucked in and running some tab as well. We were only doing like 65 but I think The water was deceiving for sure.

Time for wax. Transom and drives done. Did the oval trying out this wax I had. Stuff’s pretty bomb. Mirror finish on the red transom.

I like the spray on RX Shine stuff Kevin at Hardline Products sells. For a quick wipe. But for a real wax you just gotta go old school and put the elbow grease in. This is the stuff I used today. I like it. Easy on. Easy off. Slick mirror finish.

Think I found the perfect game plan. Take the kids for a run and have them detail it. Done!
