Bad news first ....
Rained HARD all day
Good news ...
Got a chance to stop by and meet KevinR and see his shop. Got a chance to chat and see some very impressive hardware. Very good to see a builder of his caliber in the area. Looking for an event to go to next week...
So all in all good day and the boat got a chance to tour the countryside ...on the trailer :-)

Wayne, I meant to call you Friday eve., took it out Sat. with the new 4 blade props. Main reason to go was to test my wife , pregnant with twins ,sick 24/7. So I did not know how long I would be out there,but she did ok until the fast blast coming in. Cig. did so so ,still have prop slip. Either goingto swap drives around or lower 1" or both. went back Sun. with the 3blade's back on couldnt get no more than 4,800 rpm 70mph gps with valve train out of adjustment. Minor adjustments before this weekend's poker run. I will call you this week.
