Re: Winter Upgrades?
I'll have to check my notes, but I think that Jo said that he is cutting the full pleasure at 17.5. I my boat doesn't have a cabin in it so Jo said that I could probably go another 1/2" higher. That's what I'm going to do. If it doesn't work out, I have a 1/2" spacer that I can put in it. I might go another 1/2" higher than that spacers are a heck of a lot cheaper than shorties.

Re: Winter Upgrades?
The 575 SCI is coming out and will be 4-sale (145 hrs)
I'm buying a HP500EFI with Whipple from a friend, it's tweaked a little (Done right, he's more anal than I am) and dyno'd 790- hoping for low to mid 80's at the 1120 ft we boat in.
I replaced the lower late in the season with a fresh Imco after I found a shallow spot/ ledge.
Took the upper down (XR/ITS) and was amazed at how great it looked- upgraded the vert to a newer improved part (Thanks for the tip Sterndrivespec). I'm confident that the XR will live just fine with the new power all else being equal- and missing the ledges

Re: Winter Upgrades?
Sounds really nice, I wanted it for my 28 but the budget is a little less so I can do some other stuff. Good luck with it. I don't know Charlie, I am a few hours north of there. Chris
