hopefully one of those 25 people knows the secret to making the gun not jam

interesting concept... you could theoretically do this by drilling holes in the polymer rather than a metal hull

never been there myself, but according to the gps coordinates in marsh rider, it's here. http://maps.google.com/maps?q=26.761233,-80.745733

get well soon Harley

depends on how much play there is in the mounts, but i would run a come-a-long from a point on the rear of the engine, to the cage or other overhead support to keep it from falling down when the gearbox is separated.

Well, I'm ready to sink this thing. New water pump, new radiator new thermostat (even tried running w/out it) re-bled the coolant system and still overheating. Did notice a small leak/bubble on the intake so def gonna pull that off and put new gasket. Was running today fir bout 15 minutes or so and...

you would have to put something in front of it to keep the water from forcing its way up the pipe.

ahh that makes sense... i park my boat under a big ass tree.. i was thinking of stringing a tarp from the tree, over the boat and staking it out on teh sides so that the air moves under it.. we'll see how that works out i gotta figure out something to keep the F-in pine cones out ahahah

not sure about these days but when i built my boat over a year ago i found that the Floral City radiator was the cheapest large radiator that i could find.

Just replaced head gaskets a few days back, used felpro gaskets. Motor hasn't gotten over 230 w the new ones as I have shut it down both times when it gets that hot. Gonna try draining and refilling to re-burp the system. Then will mess w the timing. It's pretty advanced now if remember correctly. ...

raising the engine height will hurt you it will radically change the angle it is pushing on the hull. I got serious performance gains in my boat by lowering the engine in the boat. talk to cuntry or dan they can explain it to you how much of your prop is covered by the transom now that you have low...

before you pull the trigger on that, make sure to take a look at the Contour HD (they recently discontinued it in favor of a model that includes GPS which may be useful for some of you wanting to plot your track on a map and whatnot..) but check it out http://contour.com/ The cam is water resistant,...

someone should take that test piece that was sprayed and stick it in a tub of ocean water for a week and see if it hangs on
