Welcome!!  I traded a built baja bug with no motor/trans for my boat a few months ago and couldn't be happier!  I still have to tie up a few loose ends before she's ready for water but hopefully she'll be there SOON  haha

Why'd you pull it?  I'm new to all this and I don't know what Gen IV means, is it a 4 bolt main?  Also, what speeds were you hitting?

She doesn't have a name as of yet but last week I was working on her a little bit and just happen to blurt out 'Rootbeer Float' since the brown is almost exactly rootbeer color...  I guess I'll think of a name after she's painted but for now that's what I'm calling her

When I was running mine dry I took it out to lake elsinore 3 times and the other times to big river. This was 4 or so years ago. Not sure how much has changed at the lakes regarding running dry headers but at the river you'll never get hassled. Imo dry headers are not that much louder then no baffle wet headers.


Perfect!  Thanks

Yes.  I like to run the dump up on the side of the boat next to the drivers seat so you have a visual reference as to cooling flow....if the water stops flowing, you'll notice it faster than on the temp gauge and can shut it down earlier
Do you have any pic of your set up?

Lmao, well yeah!  But do I have to drill another hole in the transom for it to exit?

What are everybody's thoughts on this hull??  There's one for sale on CL with a blown BBC that looks pretty awesome...  Contemplating selling my 74 Rogers (that I haven't even had in the water yet) in favor of the Sanger...  So my question to all you good people on here, that know way more than I, is...  which do you think is a better hull?  Both are 4 seaters and need painted

Anybody's thoughts on these 2 styles of boats is greatly appreciated

All I can see is the bolt head with some silicone looking sealant around it but I imagine they're carriage bolts...  One tank on each side and each tank has 2 straps, one about 1' from the transom and one prob 4'

Aside from the possibility that it leaks (haven't had it in the water as of yet) will the bolt heads affect the handling in any way?

Was working on the boat on Mon and happened to notice the gas tank straps are bolted thru the bottom of the hull, is that normal?!?!

Damn, you guys are ballers!  I got mine at Pepboys for about $50 and it works great!  Not a custom cover by any means but it covers the boat well.
