Re: B-Nauti is getting a new heart
Nothing like adding more hp to a boat. I added a Whipple to the 25 this year and I'm extremley glad I did.
Good luck on the new engine.

My boat is a blast to drive over 70. Unfortunately I have grown tired of "just 75 mph" so I am selling mine in the spring of 2005 and going with a 33-36 footer and will have even bigger HP to go even faster. My wife has finally realized that I have a disease. Oh well !!!! She loves boating too !!!! I hope to go well into the 80 mph range with the next boat.
Good luck with your upgrade. Email me with any questions because I did have to modify the seat back for the Whipple. It was pretty easy to do.

Ditto on adding external steering.

We're only about 3 weeks away

The LOTO Shootout? Ummmm...no. I am not ready for that yet. I will run her in the Cottonwood Shootout again though. I might be running a DCB in the Cottonwood Shootout too.

Re: B-Nauti is getting a new heart
Steering=A must. If not, you are just waiting for a disaster.
OLCG....you know I am happy to help anyway and I think you know the 8 or 10 ways to get ahold of me....HAHAHAHA
BTW...the 303 order came in today, ships tomorrow.
Thanks, good luck, have fun and BE SAFE. Like I was telling you, they do like to walk around over 70, which, ofcourse, is one reason why they are so fun to drive Get used to it, take your time, you'll figure out how to drive it in no time.
