It is nice to have the top end when your half throttle cruising about 65-70 and another pulls up beside with all they've got and just push the sticks and walk away. F#%^ it. I'm going for triple didgets.

And that is with 4 blade props!!

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


I should have a 30 with 525's there is plenty of room for them, that would be a quick boat.

My buddy built and rigged Revinchevy's boat. A nice set of carbed 509's would be relatively cheap and run very good! Ask me how I know. :D

verbi69 10-05-2013 08:32 AM

A 30 with 525's would be a really sweet ride! Someone should do it!!!

AJ POWERPLAY 10-05-2013 02:33 PM

It's rigged very well. Jamie took really good care of it too.

POWERPLAY J 10-05-2013 07:18 PM

I was with Len today. ****er saved my ass again. Had to pull apart drive in parking lot LOL. Rigging a 31 LS Scarab with 750's and boxes now. Hope to test next week and see triple digits.

AJ POWERPLAY 10-05-2013 07:38 PM

Wtf, making PP's look like piles of junk!!!

POWERPLAY J 10-05-2013 08:37 PM

No. Making Merc crap look like junk. Didn't I send you a pic a while back with the Merc boxes saying made in China???

POWERPLAY J 10-05-2013 08:45 PM

I have to add that my stbd seems to be starving for fuel. These China made Merc pumps are for ****! I am on my fourth one in a five years. Picked up a couple props to try. So if I can get on plane you will just be seeing my transom from further away...

AJ POWERPLAY 10-06-2013 12:09 PM

You cant even spin the props you have! LOL :p

AJ POWERPLAY 10-15-2013 01:01 AM

Come on now ladies... Little early to be hanging it up just yet... No need to get all quiet!!

...unless your name is LaFountain and youre getting beat up by the Bajas... :lolhit: :p

verbi69 10-15-2013 11:54 AM

Well this weekend was a sad one for me, ran pink antifreeze through the boat this weekend and getting it ready for the loooong winter sleep. Damn I hate winter with snow!!

Yes. The ethanol eats them away. This winter I am going to switch to KE. My buddy has run the same pumps for six years with no issues.

Came really close to owning a 2000 260 SLS back in late 2004. I was going to live with it only having a 7.4L MPI but could not close the $4K gap between asking price and what the boat was really worth with the dealer.
