    Another for Garelicks

    I’m 6’4” 250#. I replaced with Garelicks several years ago. They don’t move, wobble, or shimmy around like the stock units did. I don’t have time to worry about exploding seats..

    Wouldn't do it. If you must, look at the OSO swap shop or Wilson Marine.
    Try to go XR shaft. There are a few guys in the community who are IMCO dealers too. You get what you pay for, always.

    Watched both videos with interest. Looks like a great first run. Congrats.

    I would truly enjoy seeing some side shot video, once you decide to air it out.

    Good luck!

    Cool to see some traffic and interest in AOTH again.

    As for the insurance sub-thread, we had several Canadians show up at AOTH when I was involved with the MWDC, and their insurance checked out. ...

    I'll never forget seeing a boat lose their throttle control and end up almost taking out five other boats at one of the AOTH "organized" runs. That is when the MWDC started taking out an umbrella...

    Tabs...

    You won't see the long tabs on the typical, Classic Cig.

    The Extension box Blackhawk boats do better with the longer tabs due to the surface drive handling characteristics. The tabs give more...

    Busted...

    Sorry about that. Reality, an 18 isn't going to be as efficient as a 22 in the same conditions, because it will be in the water less, so back to my freeboard and length jet-ski argument. Again, not...

    The 22 outrides, is more efficient, and easier to run than the other two by far.

    Put the engine set-up aside for a moment, the BHLE was designed for the Blackhawk drive. I've driven this hull with a standard Bravo and the handling was abysmal.
