Well I just thought I would make some updates to the progress of the 292. I had some bugs to work out of the ignition and fuel system but I think I have everything licked now. I bought a set of Hydromotive Quad IV props that seem to be working great, I got a top speed so far of 62 mph which is ok I guess for stock 330's. I did pick up a set of 454 mags that I've going to bump up to 420's which I'll install over the winter. I just recieved the new rub rail which I decided to stick with the black instead of white. I'll get some updated pictures once I get the rub rail on. All in all it seem like a great boat but I haven't had much time actually running the boat, 95% of the time so far as been tracking down issues and fixing them.

What about the 242 LS, stil got it? |
Nice project, looking good. I think the SR1's are the some of the best looking boats made. Sticking with the black rub rail is a good call IMO, keeps that old school classic look. Some guys have been on me to change mine to white but I like the black better.

I too replaced the white rail on my 272 with a black/ stainless...
Looks sweet. bling! pm me a ph# and I can send a pic from my phone if you'd like... |

Well its time to revive this tread! The only real issue I had with this boat this summer was getting all the sediment out of the fuel tank, after a lot of frustration, fuel filters and time the boat runs great. I put a set of Hydromotive 24 pitch Q IV's on it and got a top speed of 63 MPH on the GPS. Not bad for stock 330's. I'm in the process of pulling the 330's and building a pair of 550 hp 454's. Hoping to see upper 70's with that power. I'll post pictures as I re-start this project. Here is a picture of it in the water this summer!
