:o Holy crap....this thread's a classic. Sorry to hear proppy, damn dogs.lol Fwiw over on pb Kjell just hit 98mph with 700 hp. He started the season with 55 mph, and if I read it right, the only internal motor change he made was a cam shaft. I'm impressed...

 I think there's a bit more to it then just a cam change.  Its a motor from a different boat, a yellow boat that ran 104mph (see post #51), with a cam - intake- oil pan change.  But your 100% right, those are some damn impressive numbers with only 700hp in a 21' boat.  I bet he finds a couple more mph to get it over 100 without a bottle.

 
Jeff-

On the upside, you get to move where no one will f**k with you for having projects, and Leo will have room to roam. The bite is nothing too serious, about 1/2 dozen puncture wounds and one good rip, 3 freakin' staples in that one. To top it all off, it got one of my tattoos, that's ok, I'll just get more  >:D


Skip those staples look nasty !!  I just cant stand the sight of staples.  Not that my road rash in the other thread looked any better.  ;)

the strange knobs on the transom are for a ski bar ;D
Thats a scary thought.  They where just bolted through the glass (no wood support behind them).  I actually thought they where there to hook the cover to, somehow.

 The house seems to be OK tonight again, no signs or smells of moisture.  I think I got lucky by getting it cleaned up and dried out that night.
Welcome to the club of broken boats :o  Pay here$ bend over and move along.

Well you guys will probably see a new build thread for this thing soon.  Its on its way to the North West Rainforest tonight, Jrork is its new owner.  He picked it up tonight and is on his way home with his new toy, so if anyone between Fresno Ca and Washington sees him, moon him.  >:D

The SST is NOT yours! Storage only if we get to that point!  :sly:

Now that this beautiful boat is in the shop the more I fall in love with it.  The colors are so cool.  Currently swapping out the stringers and toe board bulkhead.  Probably fab up some gunnel supports too while I'm at it.  I dont want to mess up the light weight of it but I do want to make this the boat that Jan and I always dreamed about.

Thanks again Proppy!
