Getting boat ready for sea trial again. I put a set of 26 choppers on it to try out. I hope we have enough rain to bring the lake up another 6 inches to sea trial. Will get some pictures of it running out.

I was thinking about making another 3 man stand-up bolster then adding a back bench seat. I am waiting on the next sea trial to see how boat performs before figuring out back seat arrangements. will keep you pisted on next sea trial. hope to be testing one day this week.

I finally got enough water in the lake to sea trial boat again. I ran a set of 24 choppers on it. I turned 5400 rpm's with no trim running 56.1 on gps. I tried running the boat with a little trim & the temps started heating up. I need to fill the top 2 holes on the lower units. I am doing 1 step at a time to keep everything straight. I am very thrilled on how the boat is handling. I can't wait till I get the third engine for it.
