Maiden Voyage Today
 

After several months of working and repairing my new center console and getting a rebuilt motor I made my maiden voyage this morning. During the trip found out that the fuel line under the deck was bad. Came in and spent a few hours on the replacing the fuel line and took her back out. Second trip was this afternoon was a great success......Next few days will be a wash out but better days are right around the corner.:clap::clap::clap::beer::beer::beer:

Nice job....seems like things are coming together for lots of guys on the site this season....keep up with the pics

Congrats! Always good to get out on the water.

Congrats!!! :clap: Nice job on the stripes on the hull... sweet looking. Your 200 Merc could be my Merc's twin. Same style and I think even the same stripe on the cowl which makes it the same year. Sweet running engines. What pitch prop are you running? :beer:

My merc. is running very well. I have had trouble with the RPMs running 6000 - 6200 so I recently exchange the prop I was running ( alum 14.5 X 17P) to a Merc mirage stainless steel 15.25 x 19P. This weekend I was cruising at 3500 - 4000 at 30 mph.... I did have 7 passengers and full tank of gas with the throttle wide open I was running 5200-5300 RPMs at 38mph again with 7 passengers. I want to run it with just me and 1 passenger.... How bout you????

Congrats!

I like the single stripe too. I had to go back and see that they were actually before and after pictures...

That motor is on my Cruisers Inc 22 footer. I have a Michigan Wheel 19p Stainless prop on her and if my GPS can be believed she does 52-54 on the Hackensack River @ 5400 WOT with just me in the boat. My V20 has a Johnson 200 on it.

Very nice Ledk, she is sweet. Good luck with her:clap:
