Hey Corey-

Was only able to run once last week before key west. Ran 102mph @5700 rpm. Had prop slip all the way to 6400rpm. New props came in today. Will go out and test Saturday. Hoping for 110mph.

Hi Rick-

Yeah it was so boring........ 30 mph to 70mph. Felt like it took a year!

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


What type of a/c system do you run in a canopy setup?
What type of layout and what area is unit installed in? Is it water cooled and 12V? Thanks

Don, The cat looked good in the pics from the Turkey run. I hope everything ran good for you. How did it perform? I looked for you in KW, not to hard though, and didn't see you. Are the motors broke in and what numbers did you see?

Yes, a water cooled "swap cooler". Currently it is located behind the batteries and wall. I ran ducting to the passenger cockpit. This ducting was too long did not have insulation. Need to make them much shorter. Its a work in progress.

Hi Bob, the boat is running well. During the turkey run the boat ran 105 mph @ 6000 rpm. I know I still have some set up issues, shooting for 110 plus.

We decided with the high winds not to bring the boats with us to KW. We drank and rode scooters instead.........
