will probably do so over the winter.... but just trying to get it running and a few hours on it... I was happy to break 70.... there are not many boats in my area that will do more than that.. and at my age I do not want to do 90....

[QUOTE=sp123;3501707]Bondo10 if you get to Newport send me an email... I can be on the water in ten mins.... I am very happy with it.
Newport is out for me saturday. I think I am going to try to make the Earl's Marina Fun Run instead. You should come down,probably only about a half hour ride from Newport. I don't know what we are in for,but Oak Bluffs is on the agenda,and that's always a good time. Regardless,enjoy the new boat. Jeff Also,sent you a P.M. |

Something doesn't sound right here. My 496HO's were all over the rev limiter with 26's. I now run labbed 28's and can spin them to 5100 in cool weather and about 4900 in 90° heat. Does anyone know if the 8.2 ECM's might limit the power during break-in?
I have to agree with you, it's possible the props are funny. The speeds and RPM don't seem correct. I have the 8.2's in our AT and they don't retrard the RPM's during break-in. You're probably confusing Mercury with Ski Doos advanced technology ( it's a Midwest thing )! :drink: Steve |

On - Off - On again Don Aronow race
sp123 are you going to run in the race around Long Island?
|
I was told that it was going to be called off because there were only two entries... however last night I got a call from Billy Freenz indicating it is still on.. my only problem is that I got another call from a friend stating if I go to LI...it is considered a "race" therefor I have "raced" the boat and it would void my engine warranties.... so the answer to that question is not this year... I will next year however. May bring the boat to Boston for the poker run they are planing instead.
|
Hopefully , the Sonic that won last year will
be running the race. I would like to see more Sonics run the race. I would run the one here in Florida, but I also have a problem with insurance. |
Joe is running this year again.. He was one of the first to enter. I just do not want to void my warranty on the new motors. I do not have enough hours on it just yet and I want to make sure all is running well.....
