Change the chainbox fluid and u-joint fluid. Look for milkly fluid. You should order boots for those drives.

Lenny, all they are is like the black rubber convoluted boot that encloses the u joint on a bravo drive train.

What did the oil look like after running? It should be ran a couple times on a hose and changed again before splashing.

What kind of numbers on the water and or dyno?

I need a contingency plan just in case I cant find the right 39' so I was wondering what is your guys opinion of the 33'?

Mind you I'll be running in the Gulf.
Is a 33' to small?
Will there be a big difference in fuel consumption$$$? (lighter boat=less gas) or is this a non issue?

Is the cabin design somewhat similar? (just slightly smaller)
Anyone know the tunnel width?
I know they have 10' beams.

Insurance, is there a difference between the two?

Dare I say it. But should I be considering 38' Top Gun instead of a 33' for plan B :eek:


I just dont want to make a 100k mistake.

Thank you
AL.

Will be in water late next week. Waiting for new 5 inch tailpipes with built in mufflers so I can be a friendly but boring neighbor.
