Ya but that muddy water may dull his prop... :grin:

Hmmmmm, good point. It's the mudd in the water that gives him more lift on the hull and more bite in the water for his prop...the water is more dense........which will make him go faster..

Ya, that's the physics behind it.....more dense water!! Lol.

Thats cool, guessing she made it back on the trailer with no issues. Definitely the kind of maiden voyage you want to have. :smile17:

Still a lot of tuning and set up adjustments but all is good.  I ran it up to 90 twice with more left in her.  I do not know if I will ever let her go top end.  Actually she is a dog out of the hole.  I need to work on the bottom and reduce the top.

Welch Park on Summerville.  Not really the best but it was wide open in case I had to paddle.  Karol could watch me there.  It just take me an hour and a half to get there.

It worked out ok.  I do need to find a place closer to me.  I need two more fuel tanks to break it in the way I want.  Then I will be ready to fine tune and she what she has!
