Yes it is Scott with the 34 HALLETT I found for him in California.Here's the Hallett before the wrap.Looks like you have to quote me to see the YT video. What 's up OSO, not allowed to upload my own video here? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2_CgvBYFSJ0

LTZ, Scott re-worked the engines to make more power. He also re-painted them silver, look like jewels in there. He can't leave things alone,haha. I live between Penticton and OK Falls on the east side of the lake in Heritage Hills. Shockwaves are nice, is it a 25 or 28?

OP, sorry to sidetrack this thread, i always liked the U series models. There's a U-17 near me, nice condition with sunbrella cover on it. Don't know what power is in it but would like to ask the owner if I see him. I personally prefer the U-19 since the lakes where I live can whip up some hefty swells.Looking forwards to your progress.

Nice project! How fast does the U17 go now? I have a 1996 U17 5.0 MPI SX. I took the plastic off of this boat and and ran it on it's maiden voyage. It's the most fun you can have with you clothes on.

[QUOTE=enginerd;4416062]Thanks Corey, pictures would be great. Thanks for the link to the summit damper too. I'm assuming you didn't use the keyway?
Very cool Taboma. I kind of regret not buying the U-19, but they wouldn't fit in my old garage. I love your Skater by the way.
I printed the engine mount yesterday. I'm happy with the design, just needs to be tweaked a bit more. (don't judge the bilge
any other progress on your boat.i wouldn’t mind seeing some pics 👍
