Re: Another Broken Superboat
 

Holy crap, your boats only a couple months old right? Cosmetic or not that aint cool. Your close by so you can take it to JC to get the warrenty work. What about out of town buyers. I'd be livid if I had to pull a damn near new boat back to the factory for something like that.

What do you mean? "Ghost Town"

I agree with you 100%. I'm still waiting on the f.glass storage panel(under bunk cushions) I never got. & the new Venture trailer came with two cracked & split bunks that JC & Venture are aware of, told me they were being shipped, & after repeated ?'s to JC, I still never got the replacements after 6 weeks of a 52K boat sitting on them. I'm buying my own p/t lumber. The setback puts a lot of extra stress on the transom. JC's answer to others I have talked to about stress cracks is "what do you want me to do about it". But, when I put tie bars in my 21, he said why'd you do that, these boats don't need them? I am P.O'd and don't give an F anymore. I totally did the right thing with SB, 2 new boats, recommended quality product to many as my reason for even dealing with him , and I get jerked off in the end. His main man quit. Othewise, everythings just great. :)

TIE BARS INSTALLED. Trying out the 27 TROPHY tonite. Hope this set up will be the best run yet.

That should hold!! tripps

How did that new prop work out Superbash?
I had my 4 blade on for a few runs now back to the 3 blade.
1-2 mph faster with the 3 blade, I guess thats why it's on there. :rolleyes:
Can't get 70, with the 4 blade but it is much better overall.

Didn't get to try out the 27 that nite. Gonna give it another shot ASAP while I still have the motor at 2 1/2" below instead of the lower 3 1/4" where I get best lift. To make you feel real good, your old style hull is the hot setup. Stepp hull just won't fly without a ton of trim. I'm slowly solving the mystery. :hothead:

Re: Another Broken Superboat
 

Superbash,
I am wondering if that notched transom is making a difference???
I road in JMK's 2002 and his boat carries about the same as mine...

Re: Another Broken Superboat
 

I had my 3 blade out for a ride yesterday. I try it every now and then for kicks. I hit 74 with just me and full gas on flat water. The boat just feels too loose with the 3 blade. I can trim the 3 blade MUCH higher than the 4. It kicks a big rooster tail!

Superbash, maybe the OB version is different. With my 4 blade my boat does not really require a lot of trim. Maybe the weight in the back raises the bow and the 4 blade provides stern lift. Together the ride is good without much trim. Just a thought. Try a 4 blade and a few fat chicks in the back! :D

I have a strict "No FAT chicks in SUPERBOAT" policy. :D I believe everyone about running loose with the 3 Bladers. Ny Trophy Plus is a 4 blade (O'B equivalent to Bravo). I can fly the boat in flat water only with a lot of + trim. I really suffer using the tabs cause it tends to drop the bow and kills my running angle. In head on or following 3ft.rolling chop, no problems. She will take on all full speed, no fear. Dave, does your step go straight in flat water or do you have to keep correcting??? I hope it's air in my hydraulic steering and not the step thing.

Seen a notched non-step O/B. Don't believe they are having the bowlift problem cause they are'nt really "speed guys" and have there motors low(4" below bottom) so I can really only compare to Oh-zOnE :et: chronic bow lifting problems, 4" setback and from what FASTXXX :( has told me, both Stepp O/Bers. I think more setback like the 18" Stain. Marine would benefit more. I think this would get the boat to fly better. It can't hurt and I think I'm gonna go with one. Like I said in other threads, they got a non-step non-notch I/O hull with a big setback running 72 with same motor as me. Like I said, it's the Flat Water that does it.
