misdemeanor,
I don't remember your boat. The only 27 Fountain I remember running was on Lake Michigan. Ran from Chicago to Winthrop Harbor in rough water.

You put that pro charger on and all I will see is prop spray. lol

I know a couple of other guys around here that might want to sell there pro chargers. Just have them sitting in the garage.
Hopefully see you Saturday. Calling for 90 and sunny right now.

I see his swim platform too, don't feel bad

I have the add on twin ram hydro steering, i'll be putting in the inside kit this winter, granted my motor holds together. I hear new noises everytime i run it.

Actually it was another Elliminator "V" hull now that I think about it. Havnt made it to L mich with this boat yet. There is another Velocity I have seen at the V bar. An older gentleman and his wife. Is that you?
I didnt have any time to look into what I actually need for size. Was planning on calling PRO Charger. So If someone has info on what I would use and has a good intercooled unit I would consider negotiating on it. I dont think I would want to go over 800 hp. I will run an ad for another lower unit when I break this one,
We will be up Saturday afternoon at the v bar. Going to stop at the Harmany Grove fest first but with it being 90+ degrees out we wont last long there.
I will try get a freinds Baja 21' Twilight Cruiser up there (502 with merlin upper and EMI's) up there whom I here Ryan met last weekend in madison. Once he figures out prop selection he is going to really run.

A BOAT is a hole in the water that you pour money into

Yeah, that boat was quick with what it had. It will be hard to beat with the right prop. Small boat, big motor= go fast as hell !! haha



For anyone looking to meet up, 10:30 am at the gas station off the Lodi exit 90/94 will be the place.

I've seen another Eliminator V up there on lk wi as well. He wasn't faster than me............he spanked me lol

I've come to the realization a long time ago, there is always someone faster than you......... I'm alright with that, i break enough stuff as it is........

That other Velocity is not mine. His is older and a 28.

Call George at Marine Performance Products. He is a Pro Charger dealer. 1-630-240-5401 . He rebuilt my outdrive earlier this year and is honest and knowledgable.
