Well done sir.

115?

I remember, back in about 1980, I was with Second Effort racing, ( Lk. Hamilton, Florida.).. We ( & Gary Garbrecht & Brett May ), rigged a ( then new ) Hustler like this with a pair of "Second Effort" Arneson Drives.

Well done sir.

tks
still in the dial in stage and getting things where she wants for cg in the snot
by doing all the cowling work to get prop tips inside the lifting stakes it rides very well
as about 65+ window while cruising u can feel it lift and gains 5-6mph without moving throttles
thats right where she dries out and really rides nicely on top
i mainly run in the bays and gulf so rarely in calmer waters for stretching it out yet
turns the 34s with ease and lots of throttle response in the snot when needed

I will dig up my short-few photos when I was at Second Effort... I was "kidnapped" :kiss: by Gary Garbrecht when I was working for Arneson. and hauled the Aronow tunnel Unlimited around the Unlimited series, and ended up at Second Effort.

Here's the thread (24 Aronow tunnel) which prompted me to ask Michael Aronow about the "original" 24' Aronow unlimited shown in previous pics https://www.offshoreonly.com/forums/...0-24-24-a.html
obviousely not the same boat.
