[QUOTE="bdeemo, post: 392937, member: 14262"] Few updates, I need to take more pics soon, but heres where I'm at: I've been running this boat everywhere. I got one pretty good sized dent on the bottom from running some rapids. This boat will do about 2.5" of water. Me and my girlfriend topped out at 38.6 MPH on some glass, usually run around 28 just cruising for better mpg and smooth ride. I'm sure it could make it to 40 but 28 is fine for me. I have some issues cavitating when the boat is loaded down too much (4 people and rough water), at about 15 mph. I'm going to try a scooped intake grate, thinking that the pump is running out of water to push at low speeds. I know I could prop down one more if I wanted to be loaded down a lot but I'm gonna try to retain my top speed as it feels like theres plenty of torque on the low end. I hope the new intake grate doesn't suck up too much junk but I'll test it out. [/QUOTE]
