AFR is like 10.5 at wot, so may pull a couple jet sizes. But overall a fun project. Not blistering speeds, but the hull is a 1990, non stepped, running thru SSM drives. If I had bravo's i'd probably be in the 90's. But I love the SSM drives.

True Dat. Especially on the big pond where Im airin it out quite a bit.

I think I did call you? Maybe not, I know we talked about it. I'll be sure next time to have you come by, this way I can show you the whole "Righty Tighty, lefty loosey" routine!
