Prop Testing Today - On Lake Michigan
 
Just got back from prop testing on Parnell's 41 Saber out on Lake Michigan! There were 3-4 footers and building...Not bad, boating on December 20th in Michigan! :p

Coast Guard came out and told us not to go so fast down the channel...We were throwing a huge rooster tail! :eek:

'You so crAAAAzy !'

Not a bad day here today ! Hell, it must be at least 32 degrees here in Chicagoland with the sun out like this !

:crazy: :D

Sounds rough, I'm hanging out in my shorts and a tank top:p...And not a cloud in the sky:D

Probably complaining when it dips down to 65 Huh:rolleyes:

We figured it was time to go in when the ice on the fairing started accumulating. Wouldn't want it to break loose. :o NK

Geez, too fast? Like there were any other boats out there.

Nauti Kitty 12-21-2003 10:15 AM

The coastie said " Now I know there is not a lot of other boat traffic" :rolleyes:
I figure they probably get a little bored at this time of year. Anyway they were nice enough.

Mark that doesn't look familiar now since she don't look like that no mo. :D
Pictures coming for christmas. :D
Hope everyone has a great holiday. NK

Parnell, I was wondering how it went yesterday. Get some pics up here!:D

Back4More 12-21-2003 01:08 PM

Im sorry, Im not familiar with the boat.
What power? Drives? Props? What gains did you see?
Looks like 45 and sunny out there now...wish I was out today! ;)

Sorry Parnell, my lift took hours longer than planned and I did not finish until 5 on Sat. Thanks for asking the other day, any other time I am free, this was just more than I bargined for on the lift. I have your number stored so I will call to see if you want to snowmobile some time. Or if you boat again, I am ready.

Nauti Kitty 12-22-2003 10:16 AM

Back 4more. I have to send my props to Fl to lab debend and tune and I'm tring different props so I can tell them what to do. While saturday was fun it was too rough to get the proper setup to match what I have done in the past so i'm afraid it was just for sport. I'm going to try again today. This winter boating ain't so bad. :cool: NK
