Thumbs up Re: new to forum

I thought he told me he had same setback as me ( & soon FAST(X?)). July 10th(SUPERFOUNTAINBASHFEST) looks like a go. Just went out. Caught my buddy at home(on the bay) to take a quick spin & snap a few pics.(*note color coordinated hooded sweatshirt)

Hey Superbash,

Is the inside of your fairing painted? Or does it have the vinyl BS like mine?

Unhappy Re: new to forum

Hey Dave,
When they were putting the screen on, I was like "whats with that black sticky crap?" They said that was the finishing material. I woulda rather just kept it the "molded in" black. Gonna peel it off one day.

Mines peeling off an look like ****. That's been on my to do list for a while. Did you see them put the fairing on? It just screws in using the screws from the snaps? And a little caulk around the seam?

Well gotta go get the boat ready for the weekend. The weather here look great today and tomorrow. High 70's and sunny.

Arrow Re: new to forum

Hey Dave
YES to all 3. Do you have trim indicators? I'm having a tuff time trying to really use the tabs in the ruff to my advantage. I think they would help.
FAST(XXX)
Before I forget, I don't know if you have allready, an aluminum angle 3x3x3/8 to stiffen the inside of the transom. A "must" with the setback. Pic 2- "SUPERCAT" admiring the Trophy's box.

Re: new to forum

Yes Oh-Z.
I "clam dig" once in awhile. Fortunately, I haven't come up with any shopping carts or engine blocks yet. Hydraulic jack plate, huh? Fancy Shmancy (must be a "rich boy", hehe).
