I don't understand the blue anodized parts on motor. Ur boat ain't go no blue in it , shit don't match homie. [emoji4] [emoji202]
That's how it was built. Do I understand it? Fuck no. Lee and Stan rigged it though. So it is what it is. I'm not changing anything on it.
I'll be there for a few weeks starting next Sunday.
Will do :thumbsupStop by my dock and say hello, hoping to get Charlie's heads back so I can get his engine together before he stops smiling.
I helped rig that boat. It's funny to see the motor plate. We set the motor and built our standard front motor plate. We sent that up to Faulkner and when it came back it came back with that one. It has rounded edges all the way around it and changed the way we finished some of our parts. I have pictures of when we launched that boat at Castaic, along with my boat and Randy Wilson's 21'. It was a really cool day we actually got permission to launch on the west side of the lake and we were the only three boats on the ramp. I'll see if I can dig up those pictures somewhere. I have to say I never understood the blue anodize on that boat either, but we built custom boats, built to order and that is what the customer wanted. Glad it will get use. I hope to see you out on the water this summer. I'll be there for a few weeks starting next Sunday.
Any clue what gears are in mine? Just wondering. Lee can't remember. I need to try some 1 1/8 2 blades so I can buy one somewhere.

I will Jeremy. Hopefully I'll be testing this weekend too.
Were you able to find any 1 1/8" props to test?
Well I thought I was done. I was snugging up the carb and the stud came loose in the manifold. [emoji51] It will literally take ten minutes to drill it and put a helicoil in it. I'm still on target to set timing and break in the rings tonight.

Next time get a look at those threads and do it while the rest of the parts are out.
We will of course expect video [emoji6][emoji106]
Looking forward to seeing it pull up to Sundance or Foxes this weekend!
[emoji106] see you this weekend Jeremy.
Looking good. Although I am schocked ur leaving the piping on the interior , there are a lot of news for you with this sled [emoji202]
How did it run today?
It ran great. Valve cover gaskets were leaking. Gotta take the exhaust off to change them. I think the bolts are bottomed out. It made a mess. But it is what it is. Getting closer. I also have 80 to 100lbs of oil pressure. I may need to make some changes there too. We have a couple things to sort out. I gotta research how you can change the pressure with this pump.
Any vids of this thing on the water yet OD1?
How's this coming along, any progress?
I was in Florida and just haven't had time to touch it. Maybe this weekend or early next week I can get back on it. It's getting color sanded and buffed this week so it's a disaster and the interior is all covered with plastic.
You have problems.... It did not NEED a Color sand. :rolleyes
This is color sand number three. I wasn't happy the first two times.
Keep sanding you'll end up with no gel left. Lol
Another six figure Schiada:thumbsup
You could have got a much newer one for the same coin:grumble:
Don't remind me. I know. I'm friends with DeCamp too. I would have bought it. I could have bought coin toss too. Or Joe's red twin turbo with the custom hatch. I fucking hate boats. Lol.
Outboards make life much easier!
You can see the 20 year old Jesel stuff has straight corners. The new stuff has radiuses. It's also shot peened.
Could you post a picture of the broken rocker?
