WE TRY !!!! :evilb: :evilb: :evilb: H B are you coming up for the Jan 06 SUPERWINTERFEST ?????

Re: Superbabi !! Heres your pics of your Y2K
 

Good morning Super Gary !! Off to work I go

Re: Superbabi !! Heres your pics of your Y2K
 

A good afternoon to you Rick. It's getting cold outside, :( I am really starting to miss the summer :( SNOW TOMMOROW, :( .............Happy Thanksgiving all !!!!!

Re: Superbabi !! Heres your pics of your Y2K
 

Rick did you speak to JC about the WINTERSUPERFEST ???

Re: Superbabi !! Heres your pics of your Y2K
 

Not yet. The Turbine was the talk of the day. He'd like to put together packages with the shorter turbine. That would be nice !!!

Re: Superbabi !! Heres your pics of your Y2K
 

Now that the shorter Turbine can fit in my existing space, that may just be the way to go. By the time I need to repower that may be a very serious option.

Re: Superbabi !! Heres your pics of your Y2K
 

WinterSuperfest??? what is this talk i hear? Happy Turkey Day Guys!!!

Re: Superbabi !! Heres your pics of your Y2K
 

Rob looks like everyone is shooting for a mid Jan. WINTERFEST !!!!! I did speak to JC, and he is up to pounding a few with us ( a few bottles ) lol !!!!! Perhaps you and the Mrs. can make it. Marcy and I will do a stay over, and Rick knows some nice clubs !!!!!! I'm sure it will be quite an event, some of the guys I know, and others will be a first. Fun for all I'm sure !!!!!! :evilb: :evilb: :evilb:

Re: Superbabi !! Heres your pics of your Y2K
 

Gary,
Here's a picture of the shorter ( 4' ) turbine. It's a T53-L13B
SICK !!!!

Re: Superbabi !! Heres your pics of your Y2K
 

Looks like the future is here............NOW !!!! Is the PISTON MOTOR DEAD ???? :(

Re: Superbabi !! Heres your pics of your Y2K
 

Nooo. These aren't new motors. But they still have thousands of hours left on them. The cost of a new one is around 200k. When you think about it that way, a piston motor still looks good. Erick just sold the motor in the pic last summer for 22k, all set up for marine use.
Heres a link to Ericks Turbine place

Re: Superbabi !! Heres your pics of your Y2K
 

WOW !!!!! that is one great link, Rick what speeds did he get on that 33'f fountain ?? I wonder how much JET A fuel is a gallon !!!!

Re: Superbabi !! Heres your pics of your Y2K
 

Kerosine,

Re: Superbabi !! Heres your pics of your Y2K
 

I knew that..............just could not spell it !!! :rolleyes:

Re: Superbabi !! Heres your pics of your Y2K
 

How difficult would it be to find someone who can service a marine application turbine in the tri-state?

Dan

Re: Superbabi !! Heres your pics of your Y2K
 

Dan as far as I know Jet Set is the only turbine runing in our area ( south jersey ) And I'm not even sure it's serviced down the shore. For sure something that will need to be checked into................Gary

Re: Superbabi !! Heres your pics of your Y2K
 

Up here on the Island, theres Eric Licht (http://www.turbineboat.com/ . He's the guy that will be rigging the Y2K.

Re: Superbabi !! Heres your pics of your Y2K
 

Rick took the day off ????? Good for you !!!!! 22 degrees at the shore :( Ahhhhh the good old summer............REMEMBER ???

Re: Superbabi !! Heres your pics of your Y2K
 

Up here on the Island, theres Eric Licht (http://www.turbineboat.com/ . He's the guy that will be rigging the Y2K. I've seen many of this guys creations over the years. They're awesome, to say the least.

Re: Superbabi !! Heres your pics of your Y2K

Re: Superbabi !! Heres your pics of your Y2K
 

Rick, is THICK out of the water yet ????

Re: Superbabi !! Heres your pics of your Y2K
 

Tomorrow morning. Tooooo cold today. Tomorrow should be in the 50's.

Re: Superbabi !! Heres your pics of your Y2K

Re: Superbabi !! Heres your pics of your Y2K
 

All done. Took Thick for her last ride for the season. Couldn't have asked for a better day to do it.

Re: Superbabi !! Heres your pics of your Y2K
 

Out for the season. :( How did you make out with the plugs ???

Re: Superbabi !! Heres your pics of your Y2K
 

Rick I can get you a pair or these beauties for THICK !!! :eek:

Re: Superbabi !! Heres your pics of your Y2K
 

I guess I have to stick with my Evincrude for now. Unless JC lets me finally build my 21 center console over the winter. If he does, I'll splurge for a new 250 Merc.

Re: Superbabi !! Heres your pics of your Y2K
 

with all the new found room at superboat, you should be able to find a spot out of the way to put together your 21 CC.

Re: Superbabi !! Heres your pics of your Y2K
 

[QUOTE=Superbabi]Rick I can get you a pair or these beauties for THICK !!! :eek:[/QUOTE

Duude! I had a Rude Dog like that for my first wacker! MIne was a 1958 35Hp on a home built 10' Hydro. Torque like a big dog but petered out early. :D

Re: Superbabi !! Heres your pics of your Y2K
 

[QUOTE=FASTERDAMITT]My Dad had a Eggbeater like that on a 16' wooden boat when I was a kid, I remember running up and down the Hudson river. a 6 gal. gas tank lasted all day long, now it's more like 100 gallons a day. :eek:

Re: Superbabi !! Heres your pics of your Y2K
 

Rick is the new storage area at superboat complete ???

Re: Superbabi !! Heres your pics of your Y2K
 

Nice paint job Rick............. :eek:

Re: Superbabi !! Heres your pics of your Y2K
 

Yeah Gary, it's all done. Another 1350 sq. ft. made a BIG difference. Now we have all the molds we are'nt using in it. It freed up the whole shop. Now we can concentrate on bangin out the Y2K's !!

Re: Superbabi !! Heres your pics of your Y2K
 

So you have plenty of room to build your 21' CC !!!!!!

Re: Superbabi !! Heres your pics of your Y2K
 

WOW :eek: I bet that cost 15K!!! Nice job!!
