buy the smartcraft twin engine gateway from Mercury and put it into the A75. They have a data page you can configure with all kinds of options. I made a nice page with all fuel data etc. Great when cruising to waypoints etc.

Looking good LA!

As much as I love the lines of the Skaters and prefered the all white look you and David really complimented the hulls with your paint schemes. Green is my favorite color and I would take either yours or Davids paint scheme over white.
Great work gentlemen!!

LARR are you ordering the MadEFI kits? Also you need a vent Kit to relieve pressure and make sure you drop the water (pee) hose and/or move air intake to front of he cowl to prevent water ingestion.

I ran mine Friday. All I can say is WOW:evilb:! More on that later I have a head to fix now.

I have the pirate intercom in mine works good

has to be a way to snug them up so they aren't so touchy. in rough water I really think they are going to be so loose that I move them with every rough bump I hit.

thanks jm...I need to go sit in it and at least learn how to use em...been quite a bit of cr@py weather here so I will have to have someone make engine noises to see how well they work lol
