Meanstreak 388
 

Eric Smith's new 388 ran 106MPH @ 5000RPM at 49% throttle with TMP 900's yesterday. The water was too rough to stand on it. Also props were too small. The boat should run between 125 and 130 according to Joe. It is a non stagger with arneson's. Pics will be put up tomorrow....

Will do, He just got in from NY, I am going over to take some pics.

Just got in. We were using the props off of the Turbo 388 and they were too small. We think Mean Streak needs 34 or 35 pitch for maximum performance. This boat is an absolute beast. I have some good video of us running it, I just need to get it off my video camera onto here. Anyway, here are a few photos.

Matt, I was in such a hurry to get over there, I left my camera. Thanks for going back to your house to get the camera! It is going to need at least 2" more than the turbo boat.....so much for the no wake zones......

Matt, did you take a pic of the Arnesons?

Re: Meanstreak 388
 

I forgot, I will take one in the morning, I think Eric is holding a boat wax party in the garage tomorrow...

Re: Meanstreak 388
 

I know he said the big props were being overnighted.....did they ship today or tomorrow? Saturday is coming up fast! If nothing else, I will ask BG if we can borrow a set of 35's.
