Hi Padraig. Just looked at your picture again. Are you running a 5 blade prop? If so how do you like it - how does it compare to a 4 blade handling wise? Thanks!

Anyone re-color Loncoin Flooring?

I like my Loncoin (with snap-in carpet on top) but it has developed some "age spots". Has anyone tried vinyl dye or other coloring agent to restore to the original birch white color? Thanks.

I ran a 23" and 25" Mirage. I was partial to the 23" for all around performance and the 406's higher powerband. Sold both props with the boat - still have a 21" Mirage however.
