SL44 ( Aluminum Prototype) Running Pic
 

Here is a pic from Havasu ,will have more when I can resize them as the cd I have the pics are 4-5 mg. The boat ran great a few bugs but not anything serious. It would cruise at 100 mph at 5200 rpm which really suprized me. The certified weight with no fuel is 7450 lbs for a 44 ft boat with a 42 ft hull fully rigged. Started having more transome lift over 100 mph that I wanted so am working with arneson on it and will be at his shop next week to correct. Was using Merc 4 blade labbe by Bronson Hill 28 x 16.25 , tried a pair of 29's but lifted the transome evem more. Made a mess of the bildge as I had not tigned a couple lines but no damage except my pride. Wii post some more pics soon. Thanks Wayne
