This is the greatest ad for Tres Martin's school: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b3Mwz2vEfug

It should be re-named Cigarette Racing Teaches Swimming Lessons!

thirdchildhood, nice classic. I had one with a 496 and it was out of control, it took me three months to learn how to run it. What kind of speeds are you seeing?

Thanks. I have it dialed in pretty good and it is very predictable and safe at speed. It does take time to learn to drive these boats and mine likes constant tweaks of tabs and trim while driving. It is a driver's boat and that's one thing I like about it! It runs about 83-84 with a best recorded speed of 85.4 bumping the limiter. Here's a short video of it running at 83ish: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kSUWplf6m6A
