I am the culprit. In an effort to speed up the process I applied the West Marine Sailboat sticker. It seemed to have helped as the Boat was tested again on Saturday. It ran Great. The 5 Blade P5-Xs worked very well at the elevated drive height. The 502/500s sound ausome with the Stainless Marine Dry thru transom tail pipes. I think I would bump the timing 3 degrees up, and flip the 50 cc Accelerator pumps from the rear of the carbs to the front, and put the front 30ccs in the rear. Now how about a few cosmetic upgrades to the cabin? And the name is needed on a Documented Vessel. Time to make a trip.
