DWES-- this a question from a novice
Watching the video -- Great by the way!! With all the water splashing by the engine intakes -- How does one keep the water out of the intake manifold??? Told you this was a novice question
We've had an opportunity to visit Saugatuck on land and with the boat - the boat is more fun! We hope to do the PowerQuest get together in August.

A engine will ingest a certain amount of water with out damage and the flame arrester brakes up the water into small droplets. To much water will fill the cylinder and hydraulic lock the piston and destroy the engine.
Good luck with the PowerQuest.

Don't go through each wave! Trim it up a bit, hang the bow, get on top, and you'll float on the cushion of air under the tunnel. Of course you're going much faster now so you best pay attention! Just envy speaking, I love it!

Not telling you what to do, but some tape on the front of the air cleaner would help lot.
When it was really rough we would leave the covers on our scoops when we raced.
Just trying to help
