Russ,
I'd love to. But last weekend sucked weather wise , and this weekend doesn't look much better...rain Sat and 65*...partly cloudy and 62 Sunday :rolleyes:. I have also been working a lot of OT. Last saturday I bought a new tow vehicle and just got around to wiring the plug for my power winch this morning and between 12:30pm and 1:30pm helped a buddy drop his fresh 406 SB back in his 20' bowrider. Left there 1:30pm and flew to work in Philly at 2 and am working till 12M (YAWN).
Don't worry , I promise to report within a half hour after I get home;)

Mopower,

I'd like to reserve a ride in your boat with the new power. Maybe I'll bump into you (figuratively) on the river sometime so you can show off those new engines:D What are you expecting for top end? what was it before?

You can ride on mine if I can ride on yours! (We are talking about boats here):eek:

Tool,
Before was 72 on the speedo and 67/68 gps( damned things always read low:D ).Mid to upper 80's I would imagine. Gotta try some different props till I get the rpms right. I'm starting with 28 Bravos , but I suspect they won't be enough judging by other boats , weight , size and power and what their running for props.
Maybe tomorrow 5/4/03.
Anything over 80 and I'll be happy:cool:

67/68 for a 272 is real good. Were you stock with those numbers? I wonder what it will handl like on the high side of 80.
:D :D :eek:
