Tha Avanti has a 1/4 hook for the last 3 or so feet. Avanti put that in there on purpose when she had twins but with the single its slowing us down. Hoping to hit 70 w/o the hook and the right prop. Poker Run next weekend!:D

BTW- we have a 588 waiting for it:evilb:

Hey what ever happened with your hook issue? I saw the boat at the run last weekend but did not get a chance to talk to you about it before you left...

Shes ground out. 300 more RPM with less trim to get the right attitude. Was that you in Basin bay?

No, I was in the 28 Pantera. Glad to here it helped, did you pick up any speed with all that work.

Hmmm...
I've had thoughts of bringing my boat to Rick to "blue print the bottom".
I have not heard of too many boats that have gained much speed after all of this work though.

I hear average top end gain is about 3mph. But we gained a lot in the mid.
