    I'll put together a message as soon as I get my eyeballs back in place ...


    ---- There we go , that's a bit better now .. WOW !

    I'd sure love to do a comparison run with that and the old Mag 25 . Please remind me , what's under the engine hatch ? ( I know the article says '496' but 70 is a bit high IMO for a stock 496 in that boat)
    Also , is that the original and refreshed windscreen or an entire new one ? The fabrication looks very similar to the one I had made for the Mag.

    Stock 496 HO 425 HP, and you're right, I think 70 was a typo. She'll get over 60 pretty much anytime and a little over 65 with the right 3-blade under ideal conditions. Windscreen was just refreshed and painted, with new polycarbonate put in.

    Whew , thanks for that . As much as I'd love to see you get 70 I was a bit worried that I had a lemon set-up in the Magnum with the 502/B3
    On a nice , lower humidity day it's a top out @ 60mph boat , so I've always been interested in the nearest possible comparison with a B1 to see what I'm not getting .


    That is just outstanding though . Somehow I have a feeling that if we could have any boat collection that we wanted we'd end up with very similar things .
