38 Top Gun Last ride, End of season....

Great season ended today, couple hiccups through summer including a repower, ended very happy... 572’s run nice and went way good, going to probably refresh heads just to be safe, seen 78@5100 with 17.5x29 4 blades with SSMIII :’Drives spinning out in 1 ft waves, no complaints, send props for tune up and do some small things this winter...

great day day out in Cleveland, 65 degrees at the end of October I will take it!!

Duuuuuuude,
Looks like an awesome day! Not bad speed for no notch. I think that’s around what we were running but, you probably already know that.. any winter plans for the boat?

Sure was a nice day. I couldn't find anyone willing to give me a ride... With friends like these, I tell ya!

Spent the day pulling mine apart. Nothing exciting, just touch ups and what not.

pull heads a refresh springs and valve jobs so I know how much time is on them, these engines were built in 2007, run great but want to be safe. Maybe Daytona ignitions, then small stuff cosmetic
