Just an update, the boat is completely cleaned up
Now we have seen the white button of the fader system of the speakers is aborted, the axis is too short to restore it. Does anyone know if that part is still to buy?
More photos are still to come but there is snow in Belgium

Today we get the formula out for the first time, engine turns like a swisse watch :-) only top speed was a bit disappointing... 48mph but then we saw that the trim tabs were totaly down so if they were both up it would still have to make a big difference I think.
Now there we have a vengeance 19p prop on it. What should be top speed of a 242 ls with a 7,4 bravo engine?

Looks good, with a 330hp engine it should run 52ish, but dragging tabs would slow you down.

What rpms are you turning with the 19? You want to be around 4600 with that engine

With the tabs down it can run 4900rpm, with the flaps down he does easily 4950rpm, which prop would best fit for allround use?

I have a 21 mirage but that has been damaged, so that I can't use it anymore.
Would he come out off the water fast enough yet with the 21?
