Dearborn anyway. How fast is your boat now Mark? Ian

Whatever speed he says I'd subtract AT LEAST 20 mph due to the huge plastic tarps they have over it right now at Ctn. Nabbers.

A pin hole in one of the gas tanks on the weld so small that we could not even find it. We in fact finished the poker run with (2) 1/4 tanks of gas.

Capt. Nabbers is working on the boat. He was poking around and suggested some changes. Now I can officially say that the boat is 100% redone. Infact Dave Wesseldyk inspected his work was really impressed.

118mph, 6000rpms, 1 lb of boost.
Anyone want to give me $14,000 for some new props.

Hell, I'm so broke, I can't afford to pay attention. But, as long as you dont put on the bigger props, and keep in the 6000 chips in the limiters, I'll run ya in some 1 ft. chop water??? None of that 4-5 ft chit that you like.

Nabbers does some amazing work. When you drive up to the place, it is certainly less than impressive...old boats, sled, cars, motors, outdrives, motorcycles...all kinds of crap everywhere. Inside is a mess as well, but man, he fixed a couple gouges in my gelcoat so well I could not even remember what side of the boat they were on! Matched an 11 year-old RED gelcoat, too...THAT's impressive! Plus, Miller's boat is looking REALLY good....I'd recommend that guy to anybody.

118 with only 1 lb of boost Sounds like you have a lot left. Find some used props and sell yours.
