its a pretty cool boat. motor needs lift a bit and needs more prop.. but it ran good, this is Chris' first boat so he needs some seat time but it wont take long.

it takes a lot of trim to get it to Air but once its up you can trim it down to flatten it out. it ran low 60's today.

Looks good Guys! Glad to see James wearing his PFD! Chris .... needs a jacket.

Cool ride for sure. Nothing like a road trip to pickup a boat then getting to run it right away when you get back.

Any other details about the setup?
Foot throttle?
Steering?
Jack plate?
Prop?
Expectations for speed and users goals?

Thx for posting the pics. Fabulous as usall

I bet someone has a big smile on his face???

some details... i think it needs the steering looked at maybe some solid mounts . seat mounts need to be cut down it feels like your driving a school bus.
yep it has a foot throttle .
steering is Dual Cable ( needs tightened up)
jack plate is 5" bobs
prop is a 24 tempest
the goal on this setup will be 70 i think a chopper will do this boat some good. next year i have a feeeling the Gun will have a 225 promax on it.

As Chris' first boat he's the happiest guy on the planet ! Totally worth the trip for the price. they did it in 62 hours i believe.

Nice Boat...i was thinking you guys looked like you were sitting way to high.. my valero yt went just shy of 70 with a 150 xr2 and no solid mounts. but was scary..put some mounts in. lower the seats so your eyes dont bleed ..id think you should do 70 pretty easy being a smaller boat than me !any more interior shots?
