Wow, what a great thread! I was "avoiding it" and had time to kill today.
Congrats on your breaking the 60mph barrier even though you had to brave that "cool 69 degree morning".

Breaking the 60mph mark was a little bit surprising. Light load and good weather. If I had known it was going to be so cool I would have worn some underwear. I forget that there are posters and members from all over the country. It is hard to beat our mild Florida winter for boating.

I wouldn't worry about hijacking this thread, it keeps right with the original subject.
Plus it never bothered me when my threads get hijacked (other forums), in fact I kinda like it as it keeps conversations going.

'90 Evinrude 225 turning a 14 1/2 X 19 stainless. I hit 53.? mph on GPS at 5600 rpms into the wind and current before I blew the rings out. ![]() P.S. This was lightly loaded with just me and about 40+/- gallons of gas on board.

Bradford, good speed. Sorry to hear that about the motor. Been there, I feel your pain. Nothing screws up a good day on the water like motor trouble.

Thats the thought that entered my mind after slowing down and hearing the spray paint rattle can sound.
