We are in. First run and time out since the benefit in February. Plan to do a little shake down run Thursday afternoon. Also planning to run to Captiva for a late lunch on Friday.

Bob,
Are you running on all 3 motors or did you do the swap and run on just two?

There were a few delays with parts so I decided to just move the center motor over to starboard side to have a balanced boat. New motor will be finished next week, then they can start on the other 2. Also am pulling off the lower unit and putting a plate on to reduce drag. I think we will be able to run 80 MPH which will be quite OK. If I can run in the middle of the pack I will be quite happy. Will let you know how it all turns out.
Bob

Hey Bob, that is the advantage of having 3 to choose from and any two will work.

We did our shake down today up to Captiva for a late lunch. Everything went well. Need some slight carburetor adjustments. Heading for either Naples of back to Captiva tomorrow afternoon if anybody is going to be out running around.

Glad it went well for you Dennis. Bet it felt great to get back on the water.

I am planning on taking some people out for a ride around 2 or 2:30 if that works for you Dennis. I will check with you once I get my slip and room to see if you are going north or south. See you soon.
