Hi Relaxalot,
I believe this vapor lock thing is happening to me. Won't start after it sits on the beach for a while. I have a 2020 600 sci. How would I go about changing the fuel line to a larger diameter?
I know that I personally benefited from seeing other boats being built in stages as they progressed. RDP has done an amazing job at that! I am more than happy to give back by posting my build (assuming Nordic is ok with it). I think it's good for the community and helps others (like myself) get...
Do I have to ask Nordic if they would want to participate with RDP to post updates to the "From the Mold" section? Or, do they do it automatically? Not sure how this works?
Update to the build. My beautiful wife agreed to the 600 sci. This was only possible because the Nordic Sales Manager and his Team worked with us and got us in the price range we needed to be in. These guys are so awesome. My wife is even better. I had to promise her I would never buy anything...
Thank you to everyone for your time spent helping us with this. You have all played a big roll in our decision making. After a long and very difficult process we have made up our minds. We are going with the Hallett 275 w/ Merc 565. If I could have the 600, I would have went that route. We felt...
First off, I want to thank everyone for providing such great insight and sharing your knowledge. Please keep it coming. I'm starting to wonder if the 275 would even ride that much better than the 255. I figured 3 more feet would make a major difference in ride quality in rough Mead water. Some...
Thanks Dave, I once read one of your posts that you said something along the lines that the Hallett 255 might be one of the best hulls of all time. Thank you for responding, you have no idea how much I value your opinion.
You Rock!!!!!!!
I need help deciding if I should order a Hallett 275 w/ 565 or Hallett 255 (walk-thru open bow) w/ 600. I've been working with Nordic and I'm in the cue for a new build. My wife and I (mostly me) are struggling to decide between these 2 boats. Wife won't let me spend another penny so the 275 w/...
Wow, thanks for all of your guy's input. The boat will be used at Lake Mead mostly. We are your typical family boaters, loaded with kids and ice chests, towing tubes, little bit wake boarding. We currently have a 2002 Hallett 260AC with the 525 merc racing. We have owned her for 7 years now. The...
Hi guys, new here.
I'm interested in putting a 565 Mercury Racing engine in a Hallett 255 walk-thru with XR drive.
Do you guys know anyone running this set-up? What prop?
I'm wondering how it would perform.
