    It's an annual Donzi event at Lake Cumberland, KY. The Awakening of the Horses. Usually mid-late May.

    JP,

    That looks great!!! I was the one asking about the height and it looks perfect.
    Now, do I change my color combination? Decisions, decisions...I really do like red.

    I can can see were resting your arm on the bolster will be very easy with this control

    red would look great

    Well I got back to the boat today

    still waiting on different closed cooling options but had time to install the billet aluminum battery tray



    replaced a lot of the engine hardware with ARP Stainless Fasteners and started running all new stainless fuel lines



    new fire extinguisher came in and finished installing 33 c cables on Hardin Control .....it's almost to smooth





    the new carpet I picked up from the forums also came in and it is very well made and a perfect match

    Flappers

    Donzi looks great. Did the Chinese symbols come with it or did you add them? Where did the bolt on flappers come from? They are nice. Thanks

    I have far too many boats, just ask my Wife.

    The symbols are the name of the boat and I added them. The Kanji stands for the name RONIN

    The flappers are made by Hardin And I got them from CP Performance

    I like the throttle controls. I'm just not sure about having the seperate throttle an gear control. Very cool look. Are the flappers seperate from the tips? It looks like they slip on over somethin??? I wish I had a work shop to park my Donzi in an work on her like u guyz do

    It it might take some time getting used to

    I grew up driving boats with separate gear and throttle controls so I think I will be okay

    the 33 C cables and the new controller are very smooth ......maybe to smooth

    i won't know till I run it and get it fine tuned

    the tips are a one piece slip on

    the flapper is contained

    it's great to have it inside to work on but now my tucks outside were the boat goes normally

    I think the biggest potential issue w/separate controls on a Bravo is
    the cone clutch doesn't hold up well when shifted into gear above
    idle speed. Of course the typical single control doesn't allow for that
    mistake to be made.

    George I can see where that would be an issue

    gonna have to be careful

    gonna reach out to you hopefully this week to talk about the closed cooling system

    thx
