1300 lbs of turd churning fury. Oh well. Maybe next year.

I b

Bet they weigh more than my Allison XB-2002 boat

When I first heard of the new Merc 600 all I could think of was who would be first to shoe horn one on an Allison. Then I found out how much they weigh and poof, there went that pipe dream.

The first one to do it.

 

[stoker2001]

That's amazing

whats even more amazing is his brass balls did it yesterday while we were running together with stiff breeze to 19mph.Myself,i hung way back..he made multiple passes and did run legit 130mph with the 32P lightning ET around 8500 with 1.87 ratio.after we had lunch we hit the recall for the photo and it showed only the 127 run

Whoop, there it is....

I hope he is satisfied with 130,cause I know there is more there with a good 34P..they don't make an ET lightning that big,so it would have to be a cleaver.He mentioned he is good till someone local does better

Be careful what you wish for, we had 9 inches of rain in a few days over an already soggy spring with high lake levels, it was a 2 month long shit show.

One issue was the helm. It is a pro 1500 psi max ....my pump I got with the boat was a 1000 psi. Now my pump and helm are the same max psi pressure. I will be soon know if this was the culprit. Old pump may need a rebuild. We will see!
Giving old pump back to Wild Bill for use on his 22’ Progression project.
