Havent touched it yet collecting parts boat wont be in water this year, the house is consuming all of our time. Started as a small remodel and then (we could do this and we could do that). Wholly Crap!!! We saved the fireplace circa 1939

Hey wait I was in Morris on Saturday and I saw the Sun the river was up as usual, now Sunday rain and more rain. My dad is still in Lemont and has complained about the rain.
You dont launch the 40 at Alsip do you. We used to launch our black 38 Scarab but could only use the center lane or we would hit.
Pending on the house maybe late summer on the Skater we have almost all the parts motors done except piston swap trans done
just need extra time!!!

EXTRA TIME i hear that BIG Daddy !!!! We can't Launch in Alsip or the new one in Worth there are stops at the bottom of the ramp to they try and keep bigger boats out , in Seneca the town just built a awesome ramp with no stops and works out nice if the wind is out of the North and Lake Michigan is Rockin & Rollin
Piston Swap ??? dont tell me you had Nitrous Pistons

No we didnt have nitrous pistons that would have been cheep though !!!
The motors were set up for N/A 10:5 to 1 and I just aquired some of dem things that require a big belt out front.
We made 803 hp and 767 ft with a single dominator N/A
I will be selling the intakes and carbs as soon as I remove them 1000 for the pair. 1150's with 104 and 106 jets and brodix tall deck intakes.
We will come up with the boat when it is done later this year or in the spring. Is Hammond all jacked up still?

go to an art supply store and get some clear matte frisk, makes airbrush work way way easier than with tape. That hatch is lookin great. Man, looks like i almost made the Skater logo to big. At the last minute i scaled it down an inch or two before i cut it. Thank god for that. Did you shorten the tail on the R?

did you get your water droplets figured out?
