And emphasis on the "+" when it comes to his race motors. I heard some numbers on Ray's motor and it's well north of 400...

Aqua Banshee,

I looked but did not save your number from our last call. Leave me a message at 608 347 0027 or send me an email at [email protected]. I have a couple of small parts you may want.

I'm talking more of the recreational stuff. Specifically going on the guys triple engine center console.

Scott, still kicking myself for not grabbing your boat. About a yr off on timing. Of course

I'll buy it from you in a year when your wife gets sick of it sitting in her garden

BTW, I saw really good pictures of that trailer. That was way smart on your part.
Congrats again. Love that thing.

Most likely it was me if it had the V-8s on it.

Default Twin O/B vee tread

Hi,

Between 2006 and 2011 I ran twin Merc 2.5 EFI SS engines (with Brucato SVS's) on my ol Phantom 25 from UK. I see now see that different props would have made it faster. The boat ran 87-88 mph on a good day spinning Mirage Plus props. With 4bl round air Hydromotive the accelleration was unbelievable. On plane in 1 second and from 47 mph to 70 mph in 2,5 seconds. Unfortunately the service, gas and oil prices in Norway forced me to sell them and buy a single engine. The new engine is a Verado 350sci - and its the best engine I ever owned. Now the boat is not that fast (82 mph) but its 1/4 of the costs and warranty too. However, I miss the sound from the 2.5! Sounded like a helicopter

Cheeers, Toffen
