Looking good LOL

That lower unit while totally space age is very inexpensive too.LOL

The prop probably isnt right for the boat though I think you need more than a 00 Pitch and 00 diameter.

I'm officially jealous!

Boat looks great Angelo. Hows it running?
Jim

Awesome man!! Great to see it in the water! If your going to the Miami Boat show I'll be in the Outerlimits booth. Come by and say hi.

I'm officially jealous, too....although it's sunny here, if I were out relaxing on the boat, I'd be institutionalized....looks great.

Thanks for the positive comments!

Boat runs great. that new steering is night and day from the OEM power steering. and alot cleaner looking. It is a pig out of the hole, but once on a plane it is a rocket. I am running a 21P merc mirage plus with the plugs out. I am going to drill some more holes and see if it helps. The consensus is the prop isnt ventilating enough.
With 5 people, a dog, and 3/4 fuel, I hit 57mph at 5500 RPM, and it was still climbing. 2-3' seas.
I am also trouble shooting a surge at 3400rpm. might be upgrading to a holley fuel pump soon.
