I'll be the first to admit Mike has spent plenty of time helping me out working on the boat (and it's always been most appreciated!), but I'm having a hard time recalling him suppling the parts in that boat! With that said, he did give me a couple of spare fuel pumps which was super cool of him as well. Either way, I am suppling the parts and I'd be doing all the work if Mike wasn't nice enough to lend a helping hand as much as he has. But again, mike has certainly been generous when it comes to working on the boat, there's no doubt about that!
You know you are like crack dealer to Mike he can't help tearing boat apart. Being in a bilge is like a crack house, and Jamie is on his way!

After talking back and forth with guys and a couple of other people I have decided to stay around 750hp. The motors are very mild at that number and will be running a low boost. If I have a issues with the drives and upgrade them down the road then I can always do a remap and pulley change. The boat should cruise in the 70's and top out around the c note. I am more than happy with that, as long as it looks "pretty" doing it. Thanks for all your replies. Besides if I really want to go fast maybe I can get Scot to finally take me for a ride

Sick is gettin some serious recognition here! I see it in neon lights..."SICK PERFORMANCE MARINE" ....Hmmm, it has a ring to it. Now if Jamies wife worked the front desk, Mike would get ALL my work! Hahaha, congrats on all the success Mike and Jamie.

Sounds like a respectable plan... As I've many times before, you're always welcome on my boat but that would mean you'd have to get out of the house on the weekend.

The Big White Whale is all squared away and set to roll also. Jamie had dropped it off.

Good point Scot. We agreed Frank, now that your gettin Zul engines and your confident that you can beat Pat and Adam without a problem, do you think you will be boating Saturdays or Sundays this summer? Scot thinks you will only be out on Fridays still. I disagree.....I can get a Friday off here and there, but Saturdays and Sundays are the days when that "pretty" boat will really shine! Although....Pat once and awhile can escape from his business during the week,You guys can have the sound to yourselves for these races! God this is gonna be a good summer....
