Looking for a few more mph!
 

This net 4 mph when I did this to the big boat. In comparison, this one is a Lot worse! We shall see. I put the hand held gps under the deck. May change boat attitude a lot, but it gives a general idea!

lmao we are all affected in the head.

this is proof.:evilb:

:lolhit: Glad i did this.... found out the arneson lower case was dragin a bit and the brain scientist that rigged it had it crooked.

are you "blueprinting" the bottom or just roughing it up with sandpaper?

both

did it actually make a difference on the RC boat? What did you do to the real fountain?

That is a HUGE cardboard box! What's that boat weigh? 9000lbs? Why is the label so big on the box? This is just crazy! Did they ship a house in the box? Or two cars?

LOL thats awesome

i ran about 92 or so and then on a day w 30 mph tail wind and nices waves i ran 94.8. Got me thinking. Then i tried herings and ran 93.6 on a calm day.... So i decided to bluepeint the bottoms and the drives. I went full boat so to speak. I fixed every little imperfection there was and re gelcoted the bottom. On a calm day w the water a sheet of glass i went 98.0 !! So yea it definatly is a good thing. The rc boat is still in the process. Stay tuned :)

Here you can see how far crooked the arneson was. About a inch or so in real life. You can also see where the housing "was" dragging. And it looks like the transome joint hqs seen some stress

Wow that is a big improvement, probably not worth it for me though with a boat that tops out at 55

Send that boat to Real Fast Marine for two years. They'll fix it. Ask TRL505.

BOOSTane can help you get those HP's
 

I know the thread mentions getting a few more horsepower. My company offers a premium octane concentrate that is developed to raise any 90 pump gas to as high as 107 octane race fuel equivalent. We have been running our proprietary product in our 1,200 hp pro charged engines for a little over 4 years now, and with the right concentration we raise 93 octane to 99, dial up the boost a little, and get 1,350 per engine. Our race below is below

All of this is possible with the proprietary carrier that we developed that keeps our active, anti knocking, octane rating raising, ingredients suspended in solution indefinitely. As you can see in the video below, we out perform the biggest competitor. By doing so you don't have to worry about sediment settling to the bottom of your fuel tank, clogging filters and injectors.

Really? there might be a slight problem w the rigging lol

I dunno McProdesign I think it not likely to help ya, but if you soak those litium batteries in boostane and it works lest us know! :whistle:

i went ahead and soaked the bottom w a coat of boost. Hope it dont wash off right away. Hopefully i will get a kilo run in soon. Gotta check with my insurance company first. I think the boat is layed up right now lol

ended up modifying the motor mount and the floor. Now we have a lower center of gravity for a motorway and the shaft just slammed right in like nothing now :)

Did you blueprint your hull or did somebody else?

Did it here at the shop

Hoping to get out and test my only "all together" boat today !! ;) lol . Well other than my surfboards ;)

-1 on the mph. Kinda reminds me of when I sent my Lowers to wilson .lol ! There is some different conditions here though. i ran it in the salt and at sea level this time.. Then some fruit cake yacht owner told me he I have to stop running my 31inch 40 mph boat. ( after I was done) . He could have said he was worried about me hitting his boat instead, but oh well.
