Sure would! And can we have some Little Debbie cakes too? I really like those pecan swirl rolls!
Am I to assume it goes without saying this will be in the Rose Garden around 2:00 PM?
Best be yours, mine looks like a gopher village, the GF has been playing Ms. Greenthumb for the last few weekends.

Yes they go inside stopping the rams from extending futher. Not sure what is involved to install them but shouldn't be that big a deal. They are 3/4 inch thick and can add as many to get it the right length.

Testing today went a little better. Still have 7-800 rpm's left this was at 5000 RPM WOT with 34's. So if my 34's 4 blades are actually 33's that calculates to 9-10% slip. She's hooking up good and didn't take long to get there.

Have 32' Velocity
I bought a 32' Velocity last year - twin 600 hp on the 3rd run boat clocked 92 on the gps It was a real handful. This year I put CMI and sea strainers now I am looking into 32 or 34 pitch 5 blade on, is your performance better with 34 inch props?
