Its cold... Making me think back to last summer out on the boat soaking up the sun. Looked up my videos to watch the runs on Youtube and found these. Pretty sweet. Ready for next year! The wife and I plan on going to lake race next year at LOTO so looking forward to that.

Poor video quality as this was sent to me from an Android phone and from a place with little service on the lake, but the first startup after the top end rebuild last year a week before the shootout.

Sounds great!

Post #161. What RPM's were you turning in the Shootout?

First post where im trimmed almost all the way up and throwing a rooster tail, I was trying my buddies labbed 30P bravo and was getting about 5050RPM. In the second post with my newly refinished 28p bravo I was getting 5250. Trying to get the RPM out of that 30 trimming all the way up like that was sketchy.. Felt way more comfortable with my 28 trimmed about 1/2 way up for the best speed.

Just ordered https://www.eddiemarine.com/product-p/100-25k.htm. My friend Jason was letting me borrow his tips since the ones we ordered with flanges didnt fit the angle we had when we swapped the tails.

This warm weather has me wanting to get the boat out and start working on it. I have a lot of maintenance and mods to do to the F250 before all that happens. Starting to prep for a full year of boating!

Hope everyone else is having a great winter.

Just came in via FedEx! Looking forward to April when I get the boat out.

Need to do some work to the tow rig. Have to fix reverse power to the 7pin because without this it does not let me back my trailer. Doing an S&S disaster recovery kit, swapping the trans fluid and filter, swapping diff fluids and she will be ready to go all summer.

Got the boat out for maintenance this weekend. Oil and filter change, Fuel/water filter change, Drive oil change. Had to put a new tag holder on the trailer, and replaced my exhaust tips and gaskets. Ready for the Harbor Hop at LOTO in a couple of weeks. Have a leaky trip pump that I need to fix, but its nothing that is going to keep me from running.
