More pictures of the boat have been loaded in the Photobucket album!

NICE can't wait to hear it next summer....

Awesome.

Yea, got tired of trying to keep up with powerplay j... Maybe this will kick him in the pants to bump up to 700's! :D

Lots of crickets around here lately.......

Must be depression from the coming winter

Sorry mike, just saved up enough money to turn the internet back on after last months phone bill! :lolhit:

Yep already watching videos of flybys of my boat just to hear the sound, it's not good the boat isn't even winterized yet. I think we have one more run then its white smoke for the exhaust pipes... Sad.

AJ, what exhaust are you going with?

Hopefully the loud stuff. :boat:

Got hooked up with a set of CMI sport tubes and they are at CMI right now getting tested and repaired if need be. The other side will be brand new Gen X headers... Then i'll buy the other side of Gen X the next season to replace the sport tubes. That'll save me from two kicks in the nutz the same season lol. Dry tails... Gotta hear em :D

Dry tails!? I guess that's good for me since you won't be coming to torch and running away from my wimpy little 496's.

Im coming up regardless!

Hey prowrench what's top end with the 496's? Just curious.

Let me know how that works out. If things go well I would like to head up there next summer. I had the Sherrif here follow me out a few weeks ago. Got me a lil nervous but they just waved and let me go. I will say it helps with the booze control. :lolhit:

Personally i have never been pulled over @ torch. I know there was going to be a big push but it took a turn due to locals complaining of harrassment and possibly businesses not seeing the same numbers as before...?

Cops didn't bother us once this year. I'd bet we're one of the loudest out there. Didn't bother on the speed either.

The best I've seen is 80. The previous owner got 82 out of it (still on the recall), but Tom is some sort of speed magician I guess.

Cool. Are there marinas with transient slips and truck parking? I'm not a baller like Fish. I have to stay on my boat. :cool:

I think DeWitt does but not positive.

Does it get up on plane good?

Jay- dewitt marine does transient slips and is right down from the dockside... I trailer the boat in and out each night... Lol. You always have a spot to stay up there with us you dont have to rent, lol.

Same here, previous owner says 81, would love to see it but never have.

Mine does ok, the lighter it is the better it does, we tend to have a lot of crap in our boat, when it is heavy with crap and fuel I seem to blow the props out pretty easy right as it is popping over the hump.

Cool. Thanks. L has been bugging me to go up there. If next summer gets back to normal we would like to come up in Jul or Aug.

The one in the yellow is from a 2005 300,,used to get 80 out of it with the best of 82,,
The other one is from a 2003 300,,used to get 80 out of it,,both GPS speeds..both had Bravo 30s spinning in and both boat kept on a lift with clean hulls,,I normally do not keep anything in my boats,,some fuel and a couple of drinks,,

What's up with the avatar Tom?

I've never had an issue getting on plane, you just have to be a little patient and not push it too hard. If you put the tabs down it comes up better, especially with a heavy load. As a side note, I tried AJ's labbed 28's this summer and was on the rev limiter at 74-75mph. It almost seemed to come on plane slightly slower too. Acceleration was great, but just not enough gear. With the huge load of junk and people I always have on board, I think if I get the 30's labbed it will be perfect.

Ours is a pig out of the hole. Can't seem to find a sweet spot. It's real easy to churn props. On the other end it's just stupid fast. Up on plane the acceleration is unreal. Would be nice to get it out of the hole better. Hate to sacrifice top end but who needs to go over 90 on torch? :boat:

You should have a 38 with 525's....... You wouldn't have that problem even with 400 lbs or girly stuff and 400 lbs of beer!!:party-smiley-004: :whistle:


And that is with 4 blade props!!

With 5 blades, well that's just even better!

Drugs........and the result of moving over to the dark side!!

ok..I will reply when I stop laughing
