Not even close to being Lumber class clean.

There was actually five of us on the boat (me, my daughter, my grandson, her boyfriend, and his son) and the 90 with a full tank and coolers and all pushed it around 36 mph top end. With just two fishing I can nudge 42 mph. I just added the hydrofoil on the lower unit to get it on plane quicker and It made a huge difference.

The overall performance does seem better in every aspect with the hydrofoil. Definately improved planing issues.
I wouldn't say I'm using it more now. I actually used it a lot during vacation, but it was mostly fishing trips that the grandson wasn't into at the time. Although that changed quite a bit last Saturday for him. he really laid into the fish good and now loves it more than ever.

They do give a nice ride Rob. Very dry and no pounding.

Thanks Mark.
I am now that I got all the issues worked out. Only took close to four months to get it right!

Where were you, sandy neck?

Didn't get to take the boat out this weekend, looked like the water was nice. We did a bike ride up through situate, cohasset and hull yesterday. Funny, the marine forecast was predicting 2-3 footers in buzzards bay with a small N wind. Don't understand how...
