Re: post your ride
I have run about 83 with six people and full(150 gallons) of gas.I was having a water pressur problem when I started to trim.Talked to George Linder(the designer).He told me to put 10 inches of setback to put the pickups in some more water.With the engines on the transom the hull was actually blocking the water from the pick ups.Hopefully this will solve the problem and I can air it out more.He also said the only way to cure the porpise(also known as the Linder Hop) was a tunnel tab.Well I did not feel like paying 5K from Dana so I Made my own for about 1200 including a new trim indicator.Cant wait to see how she goes this season.

Re: post your ride
Should be able to get about 10 mph out of it just from airing it out.So I will be curious as how fast with one person and light fuel.I cruise at 70 at 4100rpm with half gas and 5 or so people and gear.That is the speed I run at most of the time.It is a great boat,Big and heavy and very stable in chop.Motors go to 6300 and I am turning 28 bravo 4 blades that were labbed from Mercury.I am looking at trying to find some 30 3 blade cleavers to try which will be a lot faster but the Bravo is a great all around prop.

Re: post your ride
They are manual,I cant remember the name,but I will be home next week and get them for you.They are made in Alabama I think?But I ordered them from Eagle One out of Panama City.They were cheaper than ordering direct.I talked to the maker of thre boat and he said that the hydraulic ones would be a waste for this boat.Find the sweet spot and set them and forget them.Believe it or not I made the tab myself.If you want any info on the tab just give me a call at 678-522-4873 and I can give you specifics on how I made it.

Re: post your ride
What rams are on the tunnel tab? By the way it a real nice job.

Re: post your ride
I used OMC cobra Rams.Off ebay for 35 Bucks!Thanks.I was curious about how much it would cost to build.Almost everything was from ebay.The machining cost more than the parts!You can find anything on ebay.Almost everything was new not used.
