First run this year!
I dropped in the Eagle XP 236 in my local lake today. It was about 50 degrees and sunny. It started OK but would not stay running I had to re-start it a few times before it would stay going. It must of been a fuel problem like air in the line or something. After it got going it ran well.
I am running a stock 454MPI magnum. Last year I got a 22P Bravo1 Labbed and pitched up to a 23" I never ran it so I put it on for the first run. I did hit the rev limiter and the speedo showed like 68 or 69. I was running a 24P stock B1 last year. And the best RPM I could get was 4900. I think the 24P Labbed will be the ticket. The 22P does pull real good from the hole. I will most likely run this for every day. I would like to hit 70 but my lake is a littl short and the speed limit is 40 I think with a longer run I could trim it out and get 70. We will see.

Im with ut-welcome back to the water.
Question-In one shot you have on what looks like a jacket. In the next shot you have a t-shirt on. Being that the shots were taken in Michigan, were you having a hard time squeezing out that smile because it was -10?
I guess i should open my eyes before I open my fingers,keyboardetc. I see that the temps were in your posts and the dates were also different. I feel like dork. I thought my comments were funny so i'll leave them.
