Wow those extended cabins really take it out of you...

Or maybe it's the Phil Lipshutz magic set-up???

I'm turning XR's also and I've been told they are harder to turn than B1's. And I imagine pumping out 630-640 HP each at best??? Everyday I run 78 and light load 80's in fresh.

I have hit 82 in salt water with Craig223, Mrs. Craig223, tomcat/Paul and Biggus on board so that's a serious load and they can verify that.

Love that cabin!!!

I think its a little of both G.L. The full ext covergirl must cost a mile or two and Im sure Phils set up adds a mile or two. My drives arent b-1's though. so take that out of the equation. It still adds up to me being 1mph faster. Or maybe .1 Doesnt matter though because these babys have to last an awefull long time and I have to have alot of restraint from pushing the sticks all the way down all the time. Its just going to be nice to cruise at 65 mph w/o beating the mills up to bad. No what I mean
