No Garmin. Have Raymarine GS95. Did add a new Fusion UD750 to replace Clarion unit. Nice upgrade and saved 2lbs!!!! Weather here really hot and no ideal conditions for a top end run. Have rough water set up in right now for playing in the ocean. Running 30" Dewalds. Boat pulls hard up to 100mph @ 6000rpm with a lot of throttle left. Never calm enough to go much faster in open water.

Sounds like your enjoying the boat, Ron! My lake is still flooded. Can't run the Skater - too much debris in the water. Water is now 25 feet above normal level. They are letting out about 1 foot per day so maybe by the 4th it will be usable for the Skater. Boo! Guess I need to load up and head S.E.!

Need to have a new switch plate made for the new dash, anyone got recommendations for people they've used before or seen good work done by? Would like it to be backlit with the switch names and Skater logo. Prefer a CF front if it's possible with the back light but if not a solid color would be fine.
TIA
