W55,

I just sanded off the bottom paint and buffed it out last year while the motor was off.

Re: Look at the a$$ on this thing!!!!!!!
 

Nice A$$, ya got there Shicks!! ;D ;D ...Glad to hear she's runnin' so good 8) ...

Could it be the previous owner put too strong a spring on your throttle linkage?...PO's do some odd things sometimes ??? ;) ...w/ the spring off, how does it operate?

Curious...what's the bracket in front of the motor?...

Shore is a good lookin' rig ya got there ;D ;D ...

Your boat is identical to mine.

RAP,

That bracket is a quick fix for now. It's to keep my cable bundle from going under my steering arm. When it goes under the arm, I can't turn the motor too sharp or the cables/hoses become tight. I made that bracket at work my memory, it's intirely too tall/big. I'm hoping the vacuum cleaner hose solves the whole issue.

Yeah Shicks...it worked for me.. ;D...

I took my two boys out this morning for a little riding and fishing. Got some new top end numbers 43.7 mph @5500 rpm's. :o

I adjusted my throttle cable this morning before we left. The motor starts to accelerate closer to the top after the detent where it goes into gear. The way it was, there was alot of "lost motion" in the control lever. This also smoothed out the throttle alot. I would say that it is satisfactory now. Thanks for the help with this stuff guys. ;D

I will be heading down to the outer banks, N.C. this week. Wer'e leaving in the morning and should be back next Sunday. Before you ask, I'm leaving the boat at home. ::)

Re: Look at the a$$ on this thing!!!!!!!
 

Leavin' the boat at home?...why Shicks, old man...you're just not livin' close enough to the edge ;) ;D ;D ...takin' up space in your old age ??? ::) ;) ;D...
