This should be a kick in the pants, not the same as a 29' cat with 1350's but still a kick in the pants.

anxious to see the numbers this puppy puts up with that set up. not as anxious as the owner I'm sure

so 308 wide body (fat boy) with a bussel (338)...I get it

the arnesons allowed for the engine to be a bit lower right...how much lower


beautiful skater...congratulations!

skate...yours is next right??? I see you have changed you avatar!

curious what the purpose of using arnesons compared to 6's or 8's. Trying something different? Wonder how they will affect the atitude of the ride

Pete says it is to much weight for this boat and the boat doesn't like the props available for them. He also says the boat likes the bravo drive and props available for them, as seen in the prototype 30' Skater, it really likes the Arneson drives as well. If you want #6 drives you should go to the 357 FatBoy, it likes the 6's.
