I'm not sure of the point, most of the posts didn't really make sense.

Good luck

Check the drain line from the cooler on the port dash as well.

Thanks for the info Bill!

I'll make a note of it and get to it next year when I get back from hanging out here in Kuwait with the Navy. Logged in some hours driving a Fast Patrol Boat yesterday in the Persian Gulf. Yee Haw!!!

How fast is a fast patrol boat?

A typical Navy FPB goes over 60 mph. This particular one that I was on goes about 45mph. It also had .50 cal and M-60 machine guns on her. She has twin turbo diesls with Konrad outdrives. This boat can turn on a dime and you cannot capsize her; plus the guns can really reach out and touch someone if need be. :O) It's tough to outrun a .50 cal.
Typical bigger fast patrol boats can exceed 50 knots easily.
You can get more info on fast patrol boats featuring our
Mark 5 special operations craft @ http://www.specwarnet.com/vehicles/mkV.htm

Looks like you are from CNY judging from your logo. I am too!
Sure do miss it right now.

Enjoy!

26sonicmotion, Thanks for the work you are doing, and be safe.
Perhaps you can bring home a .50 cal to mount on your Sonic. It would be great for jet skis! :evilb:

GO4BROKE,

Thanks for the support and can do with being safe. We got more firepower over here than you can shake a stick at. :cool:

Absolutely great for jet skis for sure! A .50 cal would definitely give my Sonic a unique look, and make all the jet skis run for cover. :evilb:

See ya'll on Onieda Lake next year.

Pete
