Re: Prop 3 or 4 blade
 

guys the gas issue is sorted for now

i simply took the cover off and opened all windows for 10 minutes

easy,

so back to props cos i'm still taking 40 seconds

how do you measure the x dimension ?

matt - spinnelli cleavers does ring a bell should they take 40 seconds

still need to find out for AudioFN if i'm spinning in or out.

Just waitin on next week pay check up to be able to run the engines for five
minutes

i've lots of testin to do - going for speed run with gps on and new trimming knowledge - goal- to beat fast lane traffic on motorway next to the river i play on.

if you don't hear from me again i may be on the river bed.

Seriously, running the boat before the fuel leak is fixed is a hand grenade with the pin pulled.

What was your previous boat?

Re: Prop 3 or 4 blade
 

used to have Baja HAmmer 7.4 great fun fast good on fuel towed well.

would have another one if it was Boss hammer

that link looks minging. Petrol boats are a crazy idea like "tommy cookers" Sherman tanks.

Bring on fast diesel boats - you don't have to fix your fuel leaks cos you ain't gonna blow up and the fuel cost less than half price ( in the UK anyway)

i do remember being in hospital earlier this year after my jeans set on fire at a BBQ, that was bad enough.

still would like to see 85 mph.

ok covers off windows open 15 minutes, 10 minutes blower on, open engine cover 10 minutes bilge everything outside the lock gates.

10 mile test

use up all the fuel

sort tanks out on week end

sorted
