Just bought a 38' Fountain Lightning with 500efis and Bravos. What can I expect this boat to run? Looks like it has some Hydromotives on it, do not think they're Bravo's. I hear a whole crew that says the boat won't break 80MPH, another that thinks it'll be well into the mid 80's? Any ideas?

JZ congrats on the new boat, where's the pics? Are you going to do the Jammin on the James run with us this year or what? Get Kyle off his tail and get him to sign up to. Ya'll don't what to miss it, its great.

Brian... I definitely am planning on it. I talked to one of the guys in the club, can't remember his name but he has a Black Thunder I think, about it last year at Lake Anna. I saw Brad out on the river this weekend, Kyle took his boat out for a while and I rode with him. Hope to have mine in the water in a weekend or two. You get your stuff de-winterized yet?

You guys get out their and chop up all the trees floating down the river. Then we can come out.
