Tim, lame.
This is my happy cruise, where everything is working just right. If I could get that thing to 5500 RPM we may have a crack at the century mark... Need smaller dia prop, but it's already a chore to get it on plane with full tanks. Burn out city.
Had battery issues Sat, ran it a little but put it away because I was sick of idling back from Kellys. There's some electrical gremlins driving me nuts on this thing. Anyone know a cracker jack 12V/DC electrical guy?

it lame, was cruising 65 there at 4200, she's not fast but does what I need out of boating, I have zero desire to make it much faster if ever at all, it's financially easy to run over making fast, if I wanted fast I would have a fountain but don't wanna get beat up out there...

Come on man, everybody wants their boat to be faster.
The guys running 90 want to run 100+, the guys running a buck twenty five want to go 150, and so it goes.
Everybody wants a faster boat....

Sure within reason personally I don't want to spend endless money to get there or have an unreliable boat I've had enough problems through the years as it is I'm perfectly happy with what I have.
