Thanks B-Stubb
Hey Guys:
Thanks to Brian Stubblefield for sending my 26P prop to Mike at Hall's and doing a fantastic Lab job. I took Full Throttle out today in 2 footers and got 4-5 mph more out of her with nearly a full tank of gas. Boat ran higher out of the water and had a great mid-range with less RPM's. Hit 70 with all that weight. I should see 74 or so with less fuel.
Brian told me Mike knew how to make the Pantera ride higher and faster and boy was he dead on!!
Really put a smile on my face. The same as that very first day JO took me for a spin in a Pantera.
What a day I had today. Oh, it wasn't without incident though!!
Just as I was hitting 70, a lone sea gull decided to let loose and damn hit me square on the sunglasses. YECH!!!
Slowed me down a bit (he-he).
Anyway, thanks Brian for getting my prop labbed. I'm very satisfied with the results.

Storm:
Can you believe it!! Blue sky, sunny, slight chop, 78 degrees, flying through the air, and one damn lone gull craps my face.
Some say it's good luck... I say nice SHOT!!
Was real funny though.
Hope you get your engine in soon....season's coming.

Ron - that's good news that you picked up so much with that prop. You better watch out when B-Stubb says there is more that can be done to your boat....somehow I have a vision of a giant blower sticking out of the back of your boat!

Ron,
Congrat's on the added AZZ! Can beat the bird sh*# story though, must be Pantera's, Dom Z took out my brother in law and he took a sea gull to the head at 70 MPH, not a crap but the entire bird...... I could not stop laughing for 2 days, between the blood and the feathers. Enjoy the rest of the season down there.
