Finally made it to the water .http://www.***boat.com/image_center/data/500/1127IMAG0020-med.JPG
ran her hard for two days A impeller @ 4300rpm =60ish according to my speedo (not GPS ) no milky oil ! :D
It's the wettest riding tub Ive ever driven I need a Jet-O-vator .
conditions were great Sat. up until noon then the licers came out
what is it with these idiots ? they have 15,000 acres of lake to ride in but they have to ride up against the shore where everybodys moored . any hoo .:rolleyes:
Sat night I was laying across the seat kicked back working on the last of a 12 pack lookin up at the stars . ahhhh, threw my arm over the seat towards the back and SPLASH
:confused: Oh shit Im taking on water and its up to the seat and I'm 200 yards from the nearest shore :eek:
OK it's time to panic . well to make a long story short I made it back to shore and found that the thru hull for the exaust were to blame . so a quick round with the silicone and I was good to go .
it's a damn good thing I didnt go to sleep I might have woken up with my ass in the water and no boat :D
all in all it was a good trip for the first time out .
C.T. :wink:
