Lead under the bow
 

I can say that I have finally solved an old problem I had on my Starfire

I installed with a simple but efficient assembly lead that you can see in the attached pics

Gio,
Have you tried 4 blade props?
Will you be in Viareggio for the big show?

Jeff

Never tried but i have to do it,although i think i'm not as fast as with three
I'm planning to go to Viareggio but without boat
Hope to see you there

How many lbs of lead did you put up in the bow?

I'm guessing Gio works in Kilograms.

Jeff

I put 300 lbs,as about 140 kg,enough to balance add big block weigh

Have you talked to Giancarlo?
Has he found a new boat yet?

Jeff

I haven't spoken with him about the 27 but he's still looking for

Wow! 300lbs?! That seems like a lot of weight to me, how far forward is it. I hope that wood base is fiberglassed in well to hold that weight.

My Starfire came with two fuel tanks only and miss weight under bow than others
