You spin props in or out? My dad has a 88 12 meter with 1000's & V's. It had III's on it originally spinning out . When we put V's on it spinning out it threw an awesome roost, but was slow and hard to plane. Now we switched them to spin in and is real fast, planes easily, but the rooster tail is gone.

If you need any paint work done, Overlimits on here owns a custom shop off I94 in Harrison twp. He does very nice work and can go as wild as you want. Good luck with your project. Hope to see you on St Clair this summer.

Ok, I'm pretty sure I've seen boats out front of that place. East side of 94 and can see it going north? I always look to see if any cool boats are out.

First thing on the project list will be power, and maybe drives. The boat is in great shape, so probably won't be painting much anytime soon, but I will diffinatly keep that in mind when I'm ready. Thanks for the info!

Hope to see ya on the lake, look for a 12 meter fountain, has a 12 on the sides. Don't think there are to many older ones out there, but could be mistaken.

a 91 i put 548 tall decks in this spring. runs mid 90's 650 hp a side. tall decks are tight. the "gil" nameplates were touching on the exhaust not letting me line up the mount holes. and we had to use wedges in the exhaust to line up out back. nice clean old dog tho

253, You got yourself one great Fountain. Meticulously maintained and pampered its entire life with fresh power. The same gentlemen built my "MONSTERS" in my BLUE 32! Real sharp and knows his stuff!! Danny is one of the few that keeps his rig in such immaculet condition in and out, the shine "OLE BLUE" sets off keeps him in ahh every time it comes out
