Another long story but we got there and I had two cards I bought off amazon. Took off with Chris and LV in there Skaters and camera said slow card speed. Must be class 10 or better which is what I bought. . Inadvertently left camera on and then discovered I left the charger cable at the office. It so new and a specialty cable I was toast. So cards aregoing back and buying ones with good reviews!! Learned a lesson! Stay away from cheap video cards with bad reviews and pack your cables!

Right now I am very happy to be in the 308 outboard.

I got a ride in my old Skater at GLOC and let me tell you that it rides so much flatter and does great in the rough water. Such a fun boat and of course you can tell Sam has run outboard Skaters for years. He is old and it shows!

Hey Helt or Sam, Whats the top end on that 338 and what size motors does it have. How much of a difference does the widened body add on the top end from stock beam. I would imagine it adds more the faster the boat can go. Steve.
