Hi everyone. Yes I am lurker. Should say I am dam proud of it. On a serious point, I find the information I need with out posting. We live in Iowa and boat most of the time at lake Rathben. Please keep posting because I Love to see all the great information. I have a 330 HP 454 and installed M1 procharger with nickerson carb,Msd, up graded fuel system 28 lab prop best speed 78mph at 5000rpm. I pull engine last weekend to install new heads and 731 cam. My block shows little to no wear in the cyclinder. Rod and main bearing look GREAT. I will bore and install SRP piston, Arp rod bolts and keep the cast crank. I was told by Dean with new heads and cam I should increase 75 to 100 HP. Any Recommendation? Greg

We live in Michigan. We are 15mins from Lexington harbor on lake huron. I grew up on the detriot river. Lake erie is nice(warm water bay, put-n-bay) but lake huron is beutiful. hope to meet some of you some day it would be fun to hang out with some boat people. In Michigan's thumb it's mostley all talk about tractors and farming. Hope i wasn't rambling on.

Okay, I admit to lurking. This is my addiction, I frequent OSO sometimes both before and after work. I started in "fast" boats out of high school thirty years ago with a 20 ft. Sleekcraft Aristocrat modified tunnel vee with a 200 Johnson. I currently own a 1981 20.5 ft. Carrera with a blower motor and an ASD6 drive, 1989 27 ft. Eliminator Daytona with HP 500 clones and bravo I drives and the 35 ft. Jaguar Marine #1 cat with Cobra's and six drives purchased from Cobra Power a couple of years ago. I tow them around with a big red Topkick.The Daytona will be sold hopefully to a buddy this spring. I didn't want to appear just plain stupid having all this inventory. I boat mainly in the Sacramento Delta but do some local lake boating. I have learned an awful lot from this site, so thanks to all the heavy posters for the information and entertainment. I do not have a used rolex for sale too cheap, but have to admit I was interested. Thanks again Doug

Hopefully it will work.

Re: This thread is for all the NON POSTING LURKERS!!!
 

Wasabe's program is probably fine, but I right click the image and scroll down to send to then mail recipient. A menu asks if you want to resize the photos smaller and click yes. When the outgoing message comes up you can just pull the resized photo to your desktop for use.
Like I first said, Wasabe's is probably better.... :D I'll be downloading that link in a minute!

Hi my name is Dan from So-cal, been boating since I was five (as a passenger of course). I started out at 18 with a flat bottom and big block....lots of wrenching, a few more boats, a wife and 2 kids later, I'm now the proud owner of a new Skater. Just took delivery 2 weeks ago and loved every minute. It's their new 368 which is 8" wider and a little more freeboard than a standard 36. So far it seems to handle superbly. Baker Engineering built a pair of 1200/1400's for her, Huber's new 1550 dry sumped trannies, and as you can tell I like to go fast. Mostly going to use her at Lake Mead, with a little Havasu and Pacific thrown in for good measure. Maybe next year I'll do a little traveling with her.
Can someone give a little help with posting pics?
