Another interior shot.  You can almost see one of the subs on the driver side.

What happened to this boat?

Did you sell it or do you still have it?

Where is it now?

I know its a really old thread...  Just wondering?

Nice Essex!  I actually have the same boat as the OP.  I wanted to know about the droop snoot to see if he had success with it.  Ended up calling him and talking for some time.  While the boat is definitely sold, it was interesting to compare stories of similar characteristics both boats share.

I'm going through that whole should I add a droop snoot, wedge, or change impeller to larger size phase.  It sucks because there are no real answers and you simply need to try it and see as every boat is different.  Then if it doesn't work you end up selling the part on ebay for half the cost and chalk it off to experience.

I've no real experience with big boats like that. Probably upwards of three thousand pounds. But I'm betting a droop with some serious, serious horsepower couldn't hurt at all.

You're right.  Spec sheet says 3,500 lbs.   :(

Problem is my "Boss" likes the new Vortec FI 8.1L motor and won't let me mod it.  Only going to get so much speed with 400hp and a jet with a boat this big.

I just hate how this thing spools up in a half second flat and takes 30 seconds to get to top speed.  Makes me think I've got impeller/pump issues.
