I'm noticing, when I was up there he was getting ready to pull the scarab out to fit the fountain in, 3 days later it was snowing. Hopefully sat should be a decent tempature. Bill must be building a work of art in there. Someone needs to get him a mailbox over there.

We have been receiving mail and packages with this name and our address for months ! lol ... He is getting closer ... still has to make tail pipes and get the seats and cockpit finished . All 3 pumps were shot for the tabs and drive ... thought they might be good ... nah ! We powered it up ... everything except the smartcraft was junk due to the salt water bath it received while racing a few years ago . GPS ... prop slip indicator ...vhf radio ... just about everything needed replaced .

The boat ran out of prop @ 2lbs of boost 2/3 rds throttle ... 90 mph @ 6000 rpm . I don't think it will plane out with 4 blades ... took a while with the 5's but did get there .

Ordered a new set of props ... went up 2 pitch sizes.
