Quick question, obviously I come from smaller outboards, and have always used a hot foot. I couldn't imagine driving a boat without one. Does anybody use a hot foot on their 28?

I'm using In-Control on 2) twin engined outboard boats.
Typically I don't run offshore (big water) so I don't know if thats the hot set up for rough water.

Nice Skater, on the last pic, are those motors mounted with the tops wider than the lowers or is the camera angle making it look like it?

I would say the cowls are sitting on the back of the boat deck while the engines are being looked at/serviced so you are seeing the front of the cowls on a side view pic of the boat

Cowls are sitting on the swim platform, not motors. that's exactly what I was thinking, the In-control splitfoot. I'm running on small lakes too.

I see it now, gett'n old is a b*tch.
On my Talon I used the throttle sticks as an over-ride for a cruise setting.
