There's a long shot I might pop in since my boat is still there. I'm traveling to Atlanta tomorrow thru late afternoon Friday on business, plus may have to do a day tour with the wife on Saturday (her idea, not mine) but that looks like it's turning into an all girls trip sans the guys so anything is possible. So Mark might see me pop in early Saturday morning to raftup....err...snag the boat to take it home, if he doesn't bring it to me earlier this week. :eureka:

if you make it in we will be rafting up so look for us,we will come by bridgewater before the run then we are heading out, we always have more fun than the runners. :drink:

Looking For Local Polishers ? Call Your Local Music Shops They Will Hook You Up With Polishing Shops That Do Instruments... Mine Quoted Me $ 30 Ea. And I Told Them They Had To Strip The Stubborn Coating.

I got about a 100 rpm increase. But that is with Rex Marine replacement tip mufflers that cut my RPM's by about 150-200 on a stock 496HO. Maybe picked up 1-2mph.

Anyone else have some info after running this weekend, just trying to figure if its actual worth pulling them out.

mwdill I did make it over there, but not until around 5pm. Stopped into Camper's Paradise and chatted awhile with Brayn Tuvell who was done and showered by then. Hung out for about an hour then hit the road back to the beach in order to spend a full day on the Bay with the gang. We ran over to Cape Charles on the eastern shore for the day. After picking up the boat from Shoreline i saw several boats as i crossed the bridge heading north. Man was it tempting to just stay.... :drink:

What other kind of common shops would do the stripping and polishing of the risers and under what topic would I look in the yellow pages?
