if it falls through I'll let ya'lls know. 

I though for 3 bills someone would have jumped right away.  I've seen 750's needing rebuilds for 2 and change here.

the used fuel line is something like this...

Anyone got a hook-up or info for indoor boat storage in the San Diego area (hell, anywhere from North County to Santucky is fine for me)?  I don't want my new baby outside and it won't fit at my place until I extend the garage.  Looking for ~10'x30'.  Currently I've got her in a warehouse in LA, I'd be nice to have her closer.

I've seen "boat condo" prices range from $189 to >$400 with some quick internet shopping -I was hoping someone here may have an inside connection or the 4-1-1 for reasonable rates.


thanks

BTW, when my secondaries aren't open I'll see ~4200rpm.

I haven't been to mead since a kid, probably 25 years... what's near Temple Marina?   Temple Marina doesn't ring a bell...

Before the wifey gets too big (little one on the way) her last trip is going to be around March/April.  It may be nice to head up to Mead and meet up vs. staying in Havi as we normally do.  This trip won't be in the jet -so crossing the basin(s) shouldn't be too big of a deal in the new boat.  Any lodging in the area or suggestions?

Thanks

this may answer some questions...

yes, spam-o-rama; however, it addresses some of Stainless' questions regarding speeds with a large jet  boats.  The boat is heavy, hell it is 24'. With an "A"  it can easily yank a 200# skier out of the water.  My fastest GPS was shy of 55 w/30 gallons and day camp gear inside.  It was the perfect amount of wind chop (both ways).  With a full load of friends and all the junk it stills goes 50.

Here you go guys...

1996 Team Hawaiian Euro Open Bow.  Marine Power 454 HO Sportpac (390 hp).  Dominator w/Hydrolic Place Diverter.  I purchased this about 3 years ago and have had a great time with it.  After purchasing I had the boat completely gone through at San Diego Perf. Marine.  New high perf. heads (990's) complete pump rebuild with an "A" impeller (almost 7k in receipts).  This is a clean turn-key boat.  Starts up every time and runs like a champ -I haven't had a single problem since it was gone through.  The boat is a '96 but shows better than others of this age.  No corney Miami Vice pink and blues.  The interior is in near perfect condition, any aged pieces have been re-upholstered.  This boat has the best of both worlds:  the long V hull plows through rough water and the jet allows safe operation.  It cruises in the 40's (on the primaries) for good economy and will top out in the 50's with the right load.  Take all your friends out for a fun day on the water!  Tandem axle trailer included, along with a bimini to keep you cool on the hot days.  Good for local lake, lower river, and even Havasu.  It's been a sold boat for me -just moving up to the next level.  asking $16.5k

interested as well, PM me details.

With your Ford you'll have 80% of your torque at 1600rpm.  Pick your target cruising speed (say 70) and match your gears/tires from there.  No reason to run at 2k while on the highway when you really on need 1600 to get 'er done. 

I'm interested... are these warn out in anyway (change of lowing out the seal)?
