Ilmors were good, and the boat was fast. We had some water pressure problems early on, but that was fixed by changing the lowers. The Ilmor guys were very proactive.

Ken, have you put the boat up for the year? Or are you taking it back to Az so you can run it during the winter?

John,

The boat is in storage until May. There is an outside chance that I may run a Poker Run in Florida, but I doubt it will happen.

How is your boat coming along? Have you decided on power yet??

Molds get made later this month. We have not decided power yet, but I will either stick with 525s, ITS and sportmasters or go to 625s and Teague drives (or Imco if they are available in a package). I'm not too impressed with Merc's 600s so I dropped those out of consideration.
