That last one's a cool shot!
My parents always used to ask me if my boat was sinking...surely not a question you'll hear much....
olmako, on the other hand.....

Ha yeah what a difference. I think six needs 2 of those outboards on the back of that thing.

Six, you have any numbers from that setup? I'm curious to see how she runs.

I'll find out this week. The trim/ tilt is stuck up. Getting it fixed now. Trying to decide if I want to repower or not. The transom has no support at all

The transom didnt have any additional support on my sutphen.

Its down near you if you wanna go look at it. its in tampa. Havent heard from the new owner in a while.

Your boat is certainly light in the water.

Jeff

do you have any pic? of the transom? i would think you would need knees? i am going to try to bring it to richie tomorrow. if the tilt gets fixed today haha

man that boat rides awesome!
my brother and i went out with 1/3 tank of fuel. headed out of ft. lauderdale jetties. it was about 3-5s out and about 20knts of breeze. Couldnt get on a plane at first. i think the high speed jets were just clogged from sitting for 19 years. But when she did open up, ohh man we took off! only got up to about 4200 RPM for a few small bursts in between larger swells, but felt like 45-50mph easy. never been on a boat that rode so damn good!
The stock power steering is kinda sketchy though, probably switch to hydraulic soon. Im pretty happy with the Sing beater!

Going to the factory tomorrow with it. take a spin around cape coral, maybe find some flat water.
