36' Spectre cat
 

Hey Spectre fans where are you guys? Who's got what out there are what speeds are you running with what type of power?

Just got a 1999 36 with 500 carbs runs 102 with a 5 blade hydromotive. What is the stock prop Jay sells with the 500 package?

I ran 29 4 blade Hydromotives on my 30 with 500s and ran 5150-5200 rpm. They would not work for your 575s. The five blades are smooth, but you should just check with Jay at Spectre he has more test time than anyone. He really is a great guy, he has always taken the time to answer my questions.
Good luck, I loved my 30, it was fast and nimble

Building my 1999 30' Spectre with Imco extreme sc and whipples! Can't wait to see what it will run! Imco's should be here soon. I'm going to put them on first and then the whipples.

Where are some of you guys from?

Where any of you at the Cumberland Poker run in 2002?

I was there last year.

I have 29 and 30 Hydromotive 4 blades for sale. Send me a PM if interested.

Have stock 500 HP EFI's. Just changed lowers to Merc Sportmasters and picked up 10 MPH. Runs 111 on 36" Bravo 1
4 blades.

Sonny, how have your mods been going? Is everything done? Hope you have a good season.

I go there about 2 times a year. That is probably all I'll make it this year. I'm in Bellefontaine Ohio. It takes about 6 hours to get there. Not to bad, but a lot of my buddies can't get off for work long enough to justify the trip.

Do any of you boat on Lake Erie? I plan on doing most of my boating there this year. It is a hour and 45 minutes from me.

Everything is done. I plan to run the boat this weekend. I'll let you know how it does here.

Tunnel Tab on a 36
 

Does anyone have the dimension of a tab on the 36. I have too much machine time open that I want to make my own.

thanks

Boat Ran 108 GPS with 34 Bravo 1's out of the box at 5050 RPM.
Handling was great. Got on plane with no cavitation. Next step ist to dial in a set of props. Looking to replicate the 111 I got at Lake X on their props or better.

PS: Those were Byron's props, brand new, which he wants to sell if anyone needs them.

Sonny, now that's some bang for your buck. Lab those wheels and you will be right on the limiter and hit your goal. Keep us posted.

Do any of you guys go to Lake Erie? If so, let me know. Maybe we can all get together this summer.

Let me know what poker runs you guys are planning on going to.

Going to test the Spectre here next weekend with the Whipples and the Imcos. I'll let you guys know what happens.

Best it ran stock was 104 mph. We will see what it picks up.

Sonny, I just found out that Merc has different levels of labbing. Apparently the racers get a "better" version. You may want to hook up with a racer and get their version if you are going to have your props worked.
I was at Pro Roc a few weeks ago and they had 1/2 " spacers in all their 2" short drives, just an FYI. Also Randy Sweers set up my 36 with the same spacer and thru hull water pick up as they ran too hot with the raised X dim.
How are your test coming out?

Any of you guys need props? I have 2 sets. One pair are Mercury 3 blades 15.25 X 29 lab finish and the other pair are Hydromotive 15.25 X 29 4 blades. Both sets have no more than 10 hours on them. I ran them on my 30' Spectre with 500 hps. Call Todd at 937-592-9611 Mon-Fri.

Ran 108 with set of stock 34's. Bought a set of 34's from Throttle-Up and am still working with them to get it dialed in. Ran a best of 111 at Lake X on their 36's. Will let you know when I finish.

Sonny

What state are some of you in? I'm in Ohio.
