Tell him to respect it or it will spank him. Seriously he does need to be carefull until he has good seat time. The boat handles very well for a 24 and is a deep hull. But it's still a 24 and in nasty waters things can go bad very quickly.
Have him call me. I would like to talk to him. 864/630-1956 I still have a very very nice anchor Fortress. if he was I'll sell it for a reasonable price Wow three yrs have gone by. |

What power and true speed are you getting with a light load and the right chop?

Best I got with no weight, perfect chop, and perfect air was 89.7 on GPS. Imco extreme SC 2" shortie(which probably should have been an 1" shortie) 1:36 with a labbed by Mercury 26 Bravo. I never did try a 1:5 gear but always thought the 1:36 was hurting me. I had a buddy who also had a SR 540 with a 1.5 and 28 and we ran side by side. AOs are faster with less power, no cabin weight. |

Are you talking about the AO or the HTM?

I was talking about my HTM what rpm did u run that speed at? i have a standard lenght lower and my propshaft is pretty high i am going to check to c exactly where its at today. Im still working on putting my AO together i stiped it to a bare hull and put every thing back new, every nut, bolt, screw ammd wire is new. including a blown 598 and imco drive.
high 54 to high 56 on the rpm. When I had stock drive height, the boat would lay over REAl easy. I told Steve that I was going to ski on one and barefoot behind it. I'm pretty sure the drive was a tat lower than what he normally would place them. I never did measure my X. Embrassed to say so. My first boat :boat: Glastron GT160 w/135 Evenrude |
lol i have one spare on the shelf after that its time to spend big $$$$.

Scotty Cannon, NHRA sponcered funny car a few yrs back, has a Talon with a big cubed pro-mod motor in it, split dominator with custom intake, 10 grand in CMIs, and a 500 shot of nitros. He put a number 6 on it. It would run about a buck 30
