[QUOTE="Axhammer, post: 499792, member: 16767"] That’s a nice looking boat, I like it in red. 12 to 23 is a big jump in speed. Good job! When you were only doing 12 you had two people in the boat. It looked like it was close to planing out, but just couldn’t do it. Were you ever able to get it on plane before replacing the prop, and/or upgrading to the bigger carb? It seems like a trim adjustment to get the bow down, might have got the boat to plane out with one person maybe…if that were the case, that little 10 might have run in the high teens. Now that it’s a 15, and sorted out, it’s a speedy little boat. Nice job on the repaint and getting max performance out of it, it looks like fun. [/QUOTE]
