I don't throttle the boat when I get airborne, i just leave the thottles alone. Tell me you can do that with your Merc's!

Hi Johno!
Haven't heard from you in a while. We got lucky with Fabian but Isabela is worry-some. We'll just have to wait and see. I can't believe the trouble your having! I think it is time for you to sell and start over with something that doesn't have a "curse". Hey, I've still got those diverters for CMI elbow tops if you need them.
Monty,
Depending on you HP, around 26K. That includes the drive, props, trannys and complete steering including the helm. Make the jump. You'll never regret it! BTW, WAY cool vette!

Engines are running great! Had a little water in the fuel issue but that is solved. I have nearly 50hrs on them and they have run flawlessly. If I had it to do all over again, I'd do exactly the same thing! Fuel econo is down from the 420's, but that was to be expected. I used to get 1.2 miles to the gallon at 45mph, now 1 mile to the gallon at 50mph (same RPM).
