I did follow your conversion on Boatfreaks, you gave a lot of very good detail. I did know that for my conversion there would be hiccups along the way.

Looking forward to updates soon!!!

Once everything gets dialed in, I'm confident the ride will be incredible. I did not expect it to be "plug and play". Anytime you make a major change, some tweaks are to be expected.

Great Thread 47Excalibur, thanks for sharing.

km5125, There are always hiccups with custom high performance machines, but thats half the fun! Looking forward to good news soon. Sucks we have not had the indian summer we are used to getting in september though!

Installed the much larger power steering reservoir and I was able to concentrate on getting up on plane. Like I said before, these handle completely different than my XR's. After trying varied drive and tab heights, I found the sweet spot. Once the drives grab, I raise the tabs, she takes off. I'll post a video if my Go Pro quits freezing!

Looking forward to see it. How are the dock manners with the new reservoir?

Docking is just as easy as with the Bravo's if not easier.

I figured that would be the case. Glad an actual arneson owner answered the question because I am sick of people saying that docking would be harder.

Looking forward to a video!!
