That won't increase the speed of a boat that never sees water. :wink::biggrin.:

I am looking forward to seeing this. You will have one fast wave crushing machine when done. Cool project.

Jamie, what kind of speed that "huffer" gonna get you? How will the 26ZX hull handle at the higher speeds?
Be sure to take plenty of pics during the install....that way I can have good visual notes if I go that way :cool!:
By the way, can you get the Livorsi "ultra thin" mechanical indicator set-up?

Im hoping for 80's.. The hull Will handle higher speeds just fine..
Originally I was going to go for around 4 psi, However It looks like I will be doing a couple other things to it & running 6 psi. I am not sure when I will have it all done as I will probably also be ordering a larger heat exchanger tomorrow as well..
As far as the livorsi stuff, I can get anything that they make/offer.. :) Jamie / Lakeside

Blah... S kews me.. :D lol.. I guess ya can tell Im a little excited.. lol..
I would have gone the route of the polished, but It wont match my black engine.. :D
I probably already have more than 12 hours in this boat, just not on the water.. (Ed, you know the inside story) :yes:
Hopefully I will get this all done & get to put much more than 12hrs on the water later this summer :yes::yes:..

Well so far so good. I put about 5 hrs on so far & I am still prop testing.. I am waiting for some 5 blades. I cant keep the 4 blades locked up well with the high x dimension & the new power. I grabbed about a solid 10mph with a 30p b1 & I still have throttle & torque. The 32p b1 still blows out, there is too much slippage with them. I think the 5 blade will do the trick. I may also go the route of one of julie's custom cnc props after I do a bit more testing.. Once I get the prop hooked up for a bit It pulls quite well Yippie.. :D :D I cant wait to get in the 5 blades to try.. I just hope I get them to try before the docks come out up here.. :nilly: I want to be all ready for next season.. :yes::boat:
As soon as I get a chance I will get the video clips together.. ;)

Looking very nice. I can't wait to see how it turns out. It sounds like you are doing it right. Nothing like the scream of a blown engine!:yes:

From the pics I have seen of you I would think he would want you sitting up front:wink: so he can feel important. All guys that drive big loud boats like that!
I just hope that he does not blow it up and have to get you that 35 too soon!

To be honest ... I always like sitting in the back. Maybe because I could kick back with a beverage and lounge with my feet up like the queen I am..LOL:yes:.. I am still bugging for a bigger boat...Actually I really like the 38zr. I can dream big..Jay said that is about right dream....:propeller: K

Sure, you can take over payments too.. lol... :D :D Jamie
