Updates Don. How's she run with the XS'? Did you get the air installed? Have you settled on a prop? Enquiring minds want to know. Are you going to KW this year? We hope to make it from Miami to KW all the way buy water this year. Hope to see you and the cat in KW.

Hi Bob-

Have had some issues with the motors, to be expected when buying used engines. I have had the boat over 100mph with more left in it, but one of the engines thru a rod. Motors are both apart now and getting a refresh. Hope to be on the water soon! Props are still a work in process.

My AC unit seemed to work ok, need to make some modifications to make it work better.

We will be in KW this year, along with 3 or 4 other OB cats. We will trailer down to Stock Island and run around the area for most of the week. I sure we will see ya down there!

I'm sorry to hear about your engine problems. I had fuel issues which lead to redoing the system entirely, removed VOS tanks and put weldons back in hull. We are shipping down friends Skater to TNT and will do the Wednesday run from Miami to KW. We will do some running when I see you. Hang in there man! Just be thankful we don't have trips!

Hi Bob-

I am OK with this, in the long run the engines will be better than stock. Just hoping I can get the boat back up and running before the 1st FMO run.

And I dont hate myself enough to own a Triple Outboard Boat! See you in KW!

Now that is some funny chit

Who is doing your motors? Or are you going to tackle them yourself?

Shaun is doing the rebuild for me along with cleaning the injectors. I think a dirty injector caused the issue in the first place.
