Wow, and I thought I was on the right track gps'ing the the Moo boat at 76, still had a lot of throttle, and was holding speed good at about 4500 rpm. (On a SMOOTH lake, rough lake, well, you all know the story, lol) Haven't had the chance to truly open her up to see what she can REALLY do. Might not wanna know. (I do know, or guesstimate, the engine peaks around 5800 or so, but I've set the rpm limiter to 5k until I'm convinced it's broke in good). Then it gets reset to 6k. Someone stop me from doing this.

I think that's fast enough, thank you very much, have no immediate desire to go triple digits, well yet, lol.

I think the Moo boat has other intentions, however. A few peaks on my GPS indicated as high as 91, so I can see why the kids are scared.

I'm guessing I probably have the slowest but we have a lot of fun with it and it looks good.
225 hp Olds
23.5 ft. heavy ass daycruiser
BUT it has a queensize bed and a 'fridge.

MAYBE 45mph but it holds a lot of beers.

LMAO Where were you a month or so ago Terry?

Yeah, I had no jacket on, no kids in the boat, however, but was fun! (And scarey). They're content with the blue one. Although the girls prefer the Moo, lol. Like you though, I cruise with it and give them a slight jolt now and again.

Don't break it in from cruising.... after a few heat cycles on a new motor... hammer down... try to get the best ring seat

Thanks for the advice! Did that more than once, which is why the kids are afraid of it! (My daughter now loves it, but my son, huh-uh, he'd rather stick his head in a beehive than ride in it). Girls seem to like riding in it, go figure.

Should be good to go now. Was running a PCV valve during the break in runs with it (Old school, I know). It came out now for another breather. With 20+ hours on it should be good to go. Got some oil leak somewhere (Pan prolly), but not enough to get concerned over. Tighten it up and run it 'til winter. Opened up the 6AL to 6k, JIC I can actually do it in the near future.

Thread jack over, back to your abnormal programming!

Still think Terry might well have the fastest boat on here, short of MAYBE one of Tom's monsters IMO.

« **Reply #18 on:** May 15, 2009, 02:17:55 PM »

It should be broken down into "classes" of boats...ex...daycruisers, 18ft, 19ft, tunnells, etc.....

For daycruisers mine was at 62 on gps before the engine work....
