Yahoo! Look at the top picture all way to the right and you can see how flat the water is. Man, I wish I was out there.....
This would be a good day to be out there. Oh well, there's next year and you'll be looking GOOD!! I may have a shop by the end of the month and then I can get busy... Be ready for questions!Maybe next summer the wife and I can take a run up there!

Do it! Try to make the big bash at Mardon over the Laborday weekend. Already sounds like a few boats are coming up from down south. You could caravan together. They had 57 boats this year. Let's hope we can get even more for next year.
Message from customer Steve : It's all together, and I took it out for a spin in the lake yesterday. It works great. The AA impeller was a good choice. It launches like a bullet out of the hole, and my cruise speed is under 3000 rpm, which is much better than before. I didn't run it too fast because I wanted to give the thrust bearing and tail bushing a chance to break in. Steve
JBP note: This customer encountered a few "installation" problems which ,because he is a machinist by trade was able to overcome .His suggestions are greatly appreciated and are passed on to A/T for mods and production changes Tom

I have a 20Â’ Taylor Stiletto tunnel with a panther jet and was thinking about putting in a panther jet drive energizer kit from American turbine. Has anyone heard of this conversion or seen one or should I rebuild my panther. Or am I better of cutting out the panther and changing to a Dominator pump or American turbine. If I do change the pump which is the best choice Dominator, American turbine, Legend.
Thanks mike

Nice boat firemanjim what kind of jet and engine, top speed that is a Taylor right.
I got my HB mag on Friday. I noticed a nice plug in Jet Tech on the Energizer Kit. That was a good recommendation.

Thanks. The motor is a 454 with a tunnel ram and dual 600's. Got some tricked out heads roller valve train and full race cam. Not sure on the specifics though, duanehydro built the motor up. Haven't gps it yet the speedo doesn't really read right over 65 starts hopping. Yeah is a Cali Taylor. Previos owner really researched the boat back to the original owner and he said it was a one of a kind hull combo with the high transom. I've seen a couple with the lower transome like yours but none like mine. I really like the tunnels in the hulls. Jim

I saw that too. Very cool!!!
This pass weekend I was able to get 71mph @ 5700rpm's(on the GPS) with a built panther. We talked awhile ago and its now time to start working on trying to get 15 or more out of it.the season is over and I'm ready to start working on it. So what I'm looking for is should I consider the energizer kit or think of changing out the hole pump?
I'm sorry define "built panther" how much hp? Anyone else with a (stock)panther that can say that rpm=mph?
