Tried to get a video to share with you guys... using my crappy digital camera. I'll get somthing better for recording after a while, but its a start.

Speed recall:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1kebUnq8QdQ
Very hot (in the 90s) and humid as hell... switched from the 25Mirage+ to the 27Mirage+.. managed 85.8 on the garmin.
Only problem is I head some very slight detonation at anything below full throttle at 4800-5300 rpms... never noticed it when wide open. It was looking like I needed to have the ecm reprogrammed due to afr at lower rpms, but this sealed the deal... it'll be heading to Precision Marine.

that is a badash speed boat!
looks very nice!
send us more videos.
I recommend using the following for video recording and still photos
If you mount it hard onto the hull surface, the recording will not show the excess movement.

On the speed recall video. It's a GPS glitch. Quite common. If you look down at the tach, it's only 2200 RPM. You ca tel in the video your only doing around 40

I was running slow in that recall video... just hit the tattle-tale switch under the dash to show the speed #s from the first video up closer during the recall function of the gps speedo... you did watch the first video, right?
Here some running video crusing at 70: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r27N63rW9_c
edit: Pic showing the recall switch location from in the bow (its at the top of the pic in the center)... the other pic shows that my right hand is on the trim switch while running the boat- right side of the steering wheel.. this boat is pretty sensitive to trim and at any kind of real speed I keep my finger on it.. I'm still getting the hang of how this one handles.

Its now a 509 mildly built up with Edlebrock aluminum heads, moderate cam, stock cut down intake, and a set of Powerflow manifolds- running 10:1 compression. Got a stock bravo drive behind it currently, but I'm dying to change that lower to an imco shorty... maybe next year. I'm shocked at how easy she is to drive... figured it would be a real handfull with the stock bravo depth.

Thats all the videos I have of her for now.
fyi.. my local lake isn't worth a chit anymore.. the algae is terrible this year. I was hearing it was worse than any previous years, but didn't believe it till last weekend and saw it... I have another close lake, but its overcrowded now because of this. Everything else is close to a 2hr drive- puts a damper on our boating this year.
