    THIS MUST BE PROOF THAT OUTBOARDS ARE SO RELIABLE THAT NOBODY HAS ANYTHING TO TALK ABOUT! Nothing has been said since Fri-11th! I guess we aren't like those car motor boats with outdrive issue's, blower motor's throwing rods out the sides of there cases. Ign/MSD systems failing.......ect/ect/ect!
    Just mixing it up in here....whats up everyone?

    Toby- calm down. Your new boat will be out of the mold before you know it. I'm sure by the time its done Dave will be very happy to deliver it for you. I can picture you down @DCB every day! Look forward to seeing your new toy on the water.

    Toby are you going to have DCB custom your seats so you can fit the LCD screens into them or is it a custom bimini with drop down screen? I know your going to install the new eclipse DVD/CD player with its own screen for the passenger, I was just wondering what I would be watching inthe back??

    No LCD screen I guess I wont be riding in your boat Whats ok you probably won't be able to see the screen very well in the sun light. Your will be lucky to hit 80 with all that stereo stuff, remember no matter how many speakers you install its still just a boat with tons of open air.

    KAB.....did you get out this weekend?WELL I AT LEAST KNOW OF A BOAT / SPEAKER ON WATER THAT I WILL BE ABLE TO SPANK. YOU MIGHT EVEN BE ABLE TO HEAR THE STEREO AT 80MPH (TOP SPEED) NOTHING KILLS SPEED ON CATS WITH OUTBOARDS LIKE WEIGHT. BUT YOU YOU GOTTA HAVE THE TUNES. CAN'T WAIT TO HEAR THAT BAD BOY. MY BUDDIE HAS A WPM WITH 9 TWELVES IN THE BOW, TWEETERS AND MIDS EVERYWHERE. PROBABLY RUNNING 1500 WATTS. FUN STUFF.

So im thinking I did ok with a outboard tunnel, even if it only has one motor. Im not real concerend about top speed if it does high 80's with a skiable prop I'll be happy. So I will thump on the beach, and if I fill the need to scare myself I'll ask KAB for a ride!!!!HOW ABOUT TOMORROW???????
