Ohio River in the Cincinnati area
 

Any of you Formula owners boat around the Cincinnati area on the river. Am looking to
put together a trip this summer up or down river, say Louisville or W.V.. We, wife,
and I, like to run our 312 in the 50,60,70 MPH area .
Thoughts anyone? :)

Hook up with the Tri State Powerboat Association. They have a bunch of runs planned.

Hey Mack 312, welcome to the board. Did you buy the Poker Run edition done @ Haynes? If so, I saw you out last summer.

Dano,

Good idea. Do they have a URL?
Also, just looking for a few boats that like to run for a long weekend.

Kentz,
Thanks, what a great site. It will help get me through till May 1. Yep, you got me, that my 312. Just got the props back from Merc today. Labing cost a bit of cash, we will see if it works! :eek:

Beautiful boat. I happen to live up here by Haynes and remember stopping in from time to time while he painted yours. Funny, I just spoke with John York today and am having him lab a pair for me. Going to keep my originals stock, you can't trust that river. :D

We could do Louisville for lunch and be back in time for dinner :D

Kentz,
Thank you, we real love the paint. I have a pair of 28's to get the 312 out of the hole with 5 or 6 people in it, and the 30's that were labed for just the speed runs with 2 of us on board and a sniff of fuel. Merc said that the 30's should give me 2 to 3 MPH. I have the base line from last year on the GPS so we will see.
By the way, what are you flying on the river?

Wow - I'm running 28's. Don't think I could pull 30's. I thought you had 330's or mags in that boat?

34 Powerquest - check your e-mail

Kentz,
Yes, I have 454 Mag EFI's 385hp ea. Tuff to pull the 30's with a full load but the single step helps. I shure do need the tabs but that's what came on her from Formula. Merc says the thiner blades will help a little.

Got you E-Mail but also got a [Unable to display image] so no pix! Give it another try I would like to see it.

Yeah, sorry. I'll shoot you a pic from the office tomorrow. Thier on my hardrive and it never works from here, Just a j-peg. file :confused:
