A Long Winter Nap!
 

Got the boat home this week out of storage!! Just some wax, wire up the CD player and splash! Anybody have spring projects to finish up?

Looks like your ready to float!! I'm upgrading the ste.rio this year, hope to have it done in the next couple of weeks

im doing a counter rotating unit and new props

Nice! I have my new cockpit cover coming this week (crossing my fingers) and I ended up ordering a 4 blade Rev 4 Prop so I'm almost there now if this damn rain would stop for a day I could try her out!!

ext2gtx, What do you think your gain will be with the counter rotater??

Got to go for my first ride last night everything was flawless!!! Bring on summer!!:ernaehrung004:

I thought about getting a counter-rotating when I replaced my drives but didnt want to replace the props, would like to hear about any improvments in proformance

i took the boat out saturday and the counter got the list out of the boat, got the bow out off the water, gained mid range cruising speed and gained 2mph at top speed but im only running 4400 rpm, need to get that up to 47-48. at 3000 rpm running 43 mph at 4400 running 62 mph.the props im running are the mirage plus labbed and cupped 21p not bad top end could be better. i will work on that.

Got my cover!! Turned out great now I can't wait to take it off and use the boat some more.

We rented a cabin on the sandbar Aug 1st thru the 7th so you will see me up there this summer for sure!!

Hey Pachanga27! Where did you get your cover?

Local guy made it for me im sure he still has the pattern let me know if you need his #

Yes, I would be interested in getting a quote from him. I am going to check with a local place here in GR that is suppose to be reasonable, also.

Thanks!
