Knowing what I know about the driveability of the 1075's if your new boat runs with mine, the Sterlings will be for sale the next morning......God I haven't owned stock Mercs in 20 years.............

JM How did you ever get a boat built in your life? You analyze chit more than the cia.
Between the amount of time it takes you to decide on what you are going to build and the time it takes the boys to build one, I expect to see you kicking my azz in 2016. By then Tommy at Chief Engines will have perfected a naturally aspirated 540 cid motor making 3200 hp, that runs on lemonade and needs a rebuild every 40 years.
BTW 3-5 foot following sea from Chicago to Grand Haven this weekend for Ancestral Spirit and Primal Instinct. 2 1/2 hours straight of throttling. Broken parts talley? Two bent wind deflectors on PI from his imitation of Sean Connery in Red October. Dive Dive Dive
Just order it. I'll get it sold. NK

Forget the boat. You should see the 20 minute process of him ordering a cheeseburger.

Several pee stops and numerous drying off sessions also. See how the chugging turns into hauling in no time? I've never boated with you erie boys in rough water but I am willing to bet you would have had smiles on your faces. Two more big dogs running with us would have made for a pretty site. Aso would have made for four boats on lake mich instead of two.
I can never figure out where everyone else is when it's like that? NKBTW JD going to loto? Brandon see you on friday, NK

Ditto Man. Curt, John and I are coming off the world tour of drinking in the last 4 weeks. Milwaukee, Chicago, Saugatuck and of course our very own watering hole, The Kirby Grill, Grand Haven, Mi. "Hello"
We should hit between 2 am and 8am Friday depending on how much beauty sleep Primal boy needs. Regardless, a couple of red bulls and we will be raring to go. Looking forward to riding alongside the big gun again. NK
