Nice work. Do keep an eye on water or moisture seeping behind the transom wrap and your drives, steering and tabs. Just precaution. Enjoy it. I like those Kaamas

Awesome Jim!!! Absolutely beautiful!

Thanks everyone!
Going to be a learning curve with trying to get her on plane! Hopefully she runs as well as she looks! :) |
Looks great! Nice to see all of the 3D printed components. I'm printing some mounting hooks as I type this. lol
|
Tabs down, trim down, 4k unanswered RPMs until one hooksup, a few seconds later the other hooksup and away you go! You'll finally figure out exactly what RPM they like to launch at in your boat. After that it's almost as fast as a sterndrive (almost!)
I didn't ask that question years and years ago when I first bought mine. Took me over an hour before I threw my pride aside and called the guy! |

Are the oil cooler mounts done with a 3d printer if so are they plastic?
Do you have the capability to turn the props in instead of out? Getting on plain when your drives are to high like i ran into you may want to try using your own wake to help push you up. Rev the engines say to 10 knots back off the throttles until your wake starts to lift the transom and theget into the throttles again. It will pop up on plain. I would assume it would not be any different with kaama's then bravo"s. Kind like surfing would be the easiest way to put it. |

i once had a fountain 35 staggered 525 hering props and i sometimes needed to turn so one prop could bite and then get moving

The 357 is pretty easy to get on plane for whatever reason.
