Hey everyone, Im sorry for anything that was said that some one had taken offense to. I was only starting this threat to find out about V Fest since last year thats wasn't one and i had blown my motor. It became out of control razzin and busting. I was only doing it in good fun no harm intended. But in all people took offence and it was not intended nor directed. IM sorry to everyone on the board and specifically everyone I offended never ment to. I want V Fest to go on for you guys and should not be off be cause of me (hopefully thats not the reason). If it doesnt not happen then, and you guys still want to get together for a day run down the bay, id be more then happy to trailer down even for a day and run with you guys. I'd love to learn a thing or a few. Bill maybe 100 mph+ ride to scare me straight haha. Anyway im sorry guys this isnt what i intended and i shouldn't have let it come to this. My sincerest apoligies. Thanks Thongfellow, Hyper, and REVelocity for atleast talking to me and being up front.
-Mike and P.S. the marooned sailer is a great add on

Mike, It Takes A (Very) Big Man To Admit When He’s Wrong, There is alway's room for more learning whether you learn from someone young, old or by yourself. Thanks my friend VV

We are all family here and as all families, we can agree to disagree. Always helps to disagree in a polite manner. Something I need to work on too.

One thing I have learned is the internet can be a trouble maker in itself because we don't always know the people we are talking to and it is hard to distinguish whether the other person is ball bustin or in fact serious. The joking can often offend other people if they are not sure where you are coming from. So with that said, lets get back to talking about these boats of ours. Vector, do you have any finished pics of your gauge pods?

Not yet, I was working and was out for 37 days straight, left some gauge panels to get covered. Got back home and went to pick them up and he hasn't got them done. Bought right for Ada, Ok. Was going to finish it up this weekend but untill I have those parts back I can't. Now I got a call to go back to work on Tuesday. So It might be another couple weeks till I can do it. I took plenty of pictures so hopefully I can get it back together without any problems.

I am having the chrome rim of the trim/tab indicators done in yellow like the bezels and the switch and trim/tab panels in the same color as the other panels. I also went with black switches instead of white to match the carbon black gauges.
I may not be able to go 100 but it will look like I can if I wanted to. I can't wait till good weather.

That really turned out nice! Did you just relocate your hour meters to the engine compartment?

Thank you Thruhull, I'm not going to put hr meters in it. Because the motors are smartcraft I can just check them with the diagnostic scan tool. The last time I took the boat to the shop they left one of the ignition key's on over the weekend and ran up 50 hrs on one side. After that experience hr meters don't mean much to me.:angry-smiley-044:
