Thoughts on Carbon Fiber vinyl??

[riverracerx]

Anyone who has it. Do you like it? Is it hard to clean?
Do you think it is a fad that will look ghey in 5 years?
I love the look of it now. But I loved teal and pink in the 80's too.
How hot does the grey get? Can you even notice the CF pattern on the white?

since I do have personal experience with let me say a few things. It does clean really easy but, it is hotter than a FIRECRACKER even the white. Maybe if you wear socks while boating it will be ok!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I thought about it on my new boat, but thought it may look a little space shippy looking. If shippy is a word. LOL.

The white may be 1 degree cooler than the other colors, we also have silver and black. Let's just say we do lots of jumping in our boat.

Carbon fiber engine covers are pretty cool too. :D

Matt,
Why do you have a bicycle pump attached to your motor?

Matt,

It's to add boost for more power. :D

[Phat Matt]

OK. Really it's to drain the water out of the block if you need to.

[riverracerx]

Ohhhhhhh, got it.
I have a 502 and it has thumb screws on the block that you open and drain. Since no closed cooling you have to drain the block every few trips as the sand from Havi really build up inside.

You can get them from E-ticket in town. Let me know if you want one. I think they were 3 hundred something.

Just ask for Larry and tell him I sent you. He'll take care of you. I heard they were selling for close to $500 at the boat show.
