Yes, That was me...
Your boat is looking great as well. Where are you keeping her?
We'll see you out there soon I'm sure.

Thanks,
I'm trying out midway for this season, it's just too convienient 3 mi. door to dock. I'm still working some of the bugs out (aren't we all) of the EFIs and breaking in a new motor, so I haven't done any top speed runs yet. I've seen 60 on GPS so far, but the engines are so much more responsive than last season, I'm dieing to whack it!
I'm sure we'll see you after the rains of this upcoming weekend!
Do you ever go out during the week?
Joe

Joe, Midway is a nice spot.
We hit the Blue Oar at least once a week. So we are sure to get together.
Mondays and Tuesday are my free week nights. Wed-Fri my wife works late so I have our 5 month old son. A couple of years and he I will be out every day it's not raining.
See You Soon, Patrick

HEY PAT I THINK I HEARD YOU SAY SOMETHING ABOUT CHANGING YOUR EXHAUST. WHEN I HAD MY PANTERA I HAD IRON MERC STUFF AND I CHANGED TO EMI,S AND I PICKED UP 150 RPM ON MY 420,S BUT WET EXHAUST DID NOT WORK FOR ME THE CAMS WHERE TO BIG.SO I HAVE A SET OF RISER AND 4 INCH HOSE WITH ONLY 2 HRS ON THE AND I BELIEVE THE MANIFOLDS ARE VERY REASONABLE.IF YOU WANT THEM ILL TRADE YOU FOR A SET OF FLAGS. MY 420,S MADE ABOUT 500HP SO I CHANGED THE RISERS.

Hey Zuperboat,
Sounds like you collect stuff in your basement too.
Thanks, but I already purchased a set of stainless marine aluminum manifold with stainless risers. I just need to make the time to install them. Maybe in between the rain drops this weekend.
If you would like me to oder a set of flags for you, just give the word. Computer Signs is on my way home from work and two doors down from Ocean Performance, our local go fast boat store. I can always use an excuse to stop there.

It great to hear the Zuperboat is back in action. We need to see some pictures on Dave thread. Only one thirty footer shown.

Took yesterday off to work around the house and work on the boat. Thought I could recruit a partner for a ride in the afternoon, no luck though. Probably a good thing; with all the rain, lots of logs are a floating.
