Got some time on the seats yesterday. They are the perfect height. Sitting is sweeeeeet. Tripps got some pics and some vid of a few passes . Have to review that today hopefully. It was to flat to take down the number 1 man Zul. 99.8 was the number. My new ebay beach prop mite actually also be good for top end. Have to bring it to Mark at LI prop and get it scanned. Mark got the prop I run now dead balls on the money. It so good it stays in the prop box until I use the boat. Well the winterization is done . And its put to bed for another winter. What to dooo next. Maybe a molded swim platform !!
I too went for a ride yesterday and I'd go again tomorrow if we hadn't changed the clocks, but I guess I'll be winterizing instead...

My guess is between 15-20; I did not hook up the hour meter. I got a late start this year (July) and struggled with elictrical/efi issues until the vary last day.
The last ride I changed the knock sensor again and installed the original ecu. No error codes for the first time!
I did a compression test and saw 150-155psi for all cylinders. Last night I changed the oil, ran 2 stroke thru the efi, and anti-freeze through the block. She's put to bed on a good note...

Who betting on gas being under $2 a gallon in the spring ?? Not me !! I can only hope. Not much planned for my boat in the spring . Only more boost and some good gas to back it up with. And yes the new 3 blade. Im sure Dino is working on the turbine and Ritchie the king Zul is working on something . Will the new Superbabie with the pumped up potter motor take away the crown. Its anyone guess.

3 blades are known to be faster on the top end. But suffer everywhere else. The props a 17 x 30 never really messed with and very thick. Lots of room for LI prop to make some changes now that I know what the boat likes.
Gary tweak it so it makes power to 6000 rpm. Theirs ALOTTTT of speed to be had between 5500 and 6000. I spend 95% of the time between 3000 and 3500 but 6000 is their if I want it.
