Gary, any bites on your motor?

Rick, a couple of guys are intrested, until the cash is in my hand nothing new happens.

Come on G, turn up the boost!
A battle of 30' Supers is pending this Summer and without Superbabi?

I just looked at the Superboat forum and a Velocity guy has the last post on 5 threads...:eek:

Pat, I will bring superbabi out to the Island if possible, however with all the big HP on the boats running, I know fore sure I will come in last.:(

I would put lots of money that you would not G.
With all that HP stuff breaks...
Be happy G! you have a great ride as is...:cool-smiley-027:
There is always someone with a bigger faster boat.

Thanks Pat, we do have one great ride, the season is getting close !!!!:D

Yup, 47°F and sunny this morning.
We change the clocks this weekend so I'll be finding some motivation to install my engine in big V...:D

Merc. Racing 600sci, SOLD !!!!!!

I guess it's time to pull all the SmartCraft guages out, fill some holes and start re-rigging. You still going with the Ron poter Motor?

Yes, Yes, Yes, Yes !!!!!

Which motor? 800, 825, or 850???

LOL, Gary, your gonna love this! Just got off the phone with Kate. She said to tell you to get a "Clapper" for your boat lift! LOL
Clap up.... Clap down. too funny. She was having one of her Blonde moments. LOL

Get your azz down here to see !!!

Superbabi, striped down !!!

Congrats on the sale of the motor. I can see this thread going over 5k postes before it done !! Will the next contestant for the battle on the bay please stand up !!

Wow your boat still looks brand spankin' new!!!

Gary, how long till your Potor motor gets there? Coen sent out the gelcoat for the dash yesturday.

New motor should be at Typhoon S C end of April early May, splash should be mid May the latest !!!!

Congrats Gary...:cool-smiley-026:
I hope the new engine perks her up. From the looks of her tabs and pistons, she's a little saggy...:p
So are you going to share exactly which engine she will get?
I get the Ron Potter part from Rick's post. Will it be the 777efi that you told me about?:cool-smiley-011:

Thanks Mike, !!!!! I still dont think I have enoufh HP to play with you guys !!!

Gary Dont sell yourself short. Plan on spinning the motor around 6ooo and you will be very suprised on how fast your going to go. 550 plus cubes and 6ooo RPM you,ll see triple digets.

Thanks Pat, a little more than the 777 !!!!:D

I think the 777 would be a great choice.

If not the 777 then I guess your going for the 850.

So are you going to buy a spare XR drive, risk it, or change to some other drive?

Sounds like a fun project!
Good luck...:cool-smiley-027:

Hey Gary,
Have a look at this thread.
http://www.offshoreonly.com/forums/s...d.php?t=175508
Maybe a little Carbon-Fiber on your new dash...

Pat, that was an option, however I,m gonna re spray with Superboat while gelcoat !!!!

Wow the Superbabi thread is a buzz... WHat about the drive???

Hey Gary how are you ?? As for the drive...........I guess I will pick up a spare, just in case. :D

I Have A Mint XR Drive I Have No Use For 5K Buys It

What year, hours, ratio ???

Lightspeed doesnt deal with junk !!

Who said he did ??? There are plenty of XR drives on the market, just need some anwsers.:D

I myself would not buy a rebuilt drive and expect to put real power to it. My point was if lightspeed said its mint Im sure its worth every cent.

Mike I also would not buy a rebuilt, thats why I am intrested on knowing hours and what motor and boat it came from, a 496, 0r a 525 with LOW HOURS perhaps could be a deal. Or a couple of thousand more I could end up with a new XR.:D

Depends who rebuilds it. Mine was rebuilt and made it through close to 2 seasons now. I'm hoping to squeeze another!!

K, how many hours a year do you run ???

Its A 1.5 Ratio 25Hrs Of Use Its A 03 Came Off A Twin Engine Fountain That The Guy Up Dated Power And Drives,He Had 525s In It Now He Has 1000 HP And #6s I Bought It For A Spare For The Kryptonite. Now That I Am Boatless I Dont Need It

Rick, got the gel coat last nite, time to respray the dash !!!

I see im not the only one up early !! Spraying the dash already ? I just mite get to some wrenching today.

Gary, why is it taking soo long for Potter to get you the motor? It takes a month+ to build?
I'm just asking, I don't know.
