Lol.....it was able to work without scoop. I wanted it to be as low as possible. And due to header interference scoop wasn't going to accomplish that.

That engine needs fresh air......

As long as it doesn't look like a skyscraper back there. :thumbsup

Danny has a way of finishing at the last minute, but the quality never drops.

When I redid my hatch he finished at 11pm, trailed boat down to Carlsbad and the next day at 7am this boat was dropped off WOT for more work

Yah. I talked to him a few minutes ago and they were finishing up buffing the boat. And will be heading to HB. I will have the boat at B&D at 7am tomorrow.

Turned out nice. Don't listen to RD, the checker flag speaker covers match the boat. The vent on the hatch looks clean.

I thought you were leaving at 5:30 am this morning for the river?


By the way are you going to have a chance to put the hatch rams back in before the weekend?

I left at 530 to get the boat to B&D for the finishing touches. Unfortunately the hatch ram will not be in. Have to order a different one. So IM borrowing the B&D marine hatch stick. Lol. Or just leave it closed. Boat for dropped off at my house at 130. And I was up at 5:15. I'm running on fumes.

That sucks, the rail kit etc... is some of the nicest stuff in the boat!

Sounds awesome and looks great. I've been checking in every 15 minutes to see if you posted any video of it running on Elsinore. I see it running on the trailer but how does it run when you take it out on the lake???

People want to know!!!

It's always an awesome feeling when you get your new boat back. Even writing the check doesn't hurt so bad because it just plain looks bitchen!!!!:thumbsup

Congrats and head out to the River. Let's hear how that thing runs!!

Looks awesome. 55 mph at 3200 rpm is nice. Temp is looking a little low???

Congrats on finally getting some seat time. Have a beer and enjoy. Don't let those idiots tell you that you look silly drinking a beer sitting in the boat on the trailer in the front yard tonight with the tunes going!!

Enjoy!:D

Water temp was 150 which is were we want it. You were probably looking at the oil temp. It wasn't run hard enough for a long enough time to get the oil temp up.
