Don

Heard you had to hire a professional throttleman to keep up. Is that true??

Only half of that is true. JC and Eric at Midcoast have been hounding me to get rid of the foot pedal. They say that my drive problems will be reduced because of the foot pedal being too jerky with the gas. I did not believe them because I have been pretty easy on the boat this year. But after the second gear set in the lower. ( which you will expierence soon from the looks of your dyno sheet) I decided to put a throttle in the seat. Jeff said he did not want to go on the run unless he could be a part of the ass kicking. So I had Progression put the seat with the throttle in the passenger side for now. It is just a matter of unbolting the seat bases and switching the seats around to put it on the drivers side. So that is the answer to your question. But watch out you are going to have a problem with my big ass 29 this weekend........
Oh yeh and there are rumors of a 30 Activator coming that runs over 110..... If the drive stays together

It's OK to be scared.

I hope the Sound doesn't look the way it did this past weekend, it was rough!!!

Hmmm...
I guess running a 3 blade to get an extra 2mph an't going to mean chit...
Anyone got a procharger I can barrow...
Just remember as your going by my little 75mph 24', "Red Right Returning"...
There are few spots in the river that can do more damage to your out-drive than any 800+HP engines...
One other thing I'd like to express to the bigger boats, this is an event organized by the Scream & Fly guys and they have mainly 21' and smaller out-boards.
Please have respect for the little guys...

No Doubt Pat we are all respectful of each other. Plus you can't go barreling down the river at 100 the whole way and expect to make it back to Long Island after lunch. You may want to put your 3 blade on though. You are going to need all the help you can get to keep up with Pure Energy. Forget about the Progression or the better than me the Activator.....

We should have a good day no matter what. Everybody is going to have a good time before we put the boats away for the winter. Some good food drinks and a lot of BS talk........
