Blew the motor!!! Major wrong prop decision at the last minute. Ran an untested super thinned prop that ripped 1" of the tips off of 3 blades, determined I still kept it pegged with the boat going everywhere but straight spinning 7800RPM. I kew it was coming but I had already decided that fragile motor had to get out of my engine room anyway. I'm not sure whether to go down or go blower. DId you see Predator running with super Vee in the second race?? How the hell can my single engine 30ft boat be placed in the same class as him. I can run 92 in perfect conditions for brief periods. I wonder what story his GPS told after running up with them. Thinking about a 525 and OSS.
