Today I took her to the carwash for a little bath.... then to the river. I backed it in and ran the engine for a while and then said heck with it and backed it off the trailer... immediately I remembered that the thruhull for the front fishbox was broken and zipped back on the trailer lol DUH.... I dug around and came up with a suitable repair and then backed her off again... I headed up river and gave here full juice.... I was trimmed too high and she just blew a hole in the water. I backed off and found the wires to trim down a bit.... put the screws to her again and she JUMPED right up in plane.... That lil 1150 is a heck of a motor... Plus it sounded so nice, almost don't even need a radio.
I didn't have any speed measuring device w me and I only opened her up for 30 seconds or so, thus I don't have any numbers for ya but I at least know that this combo is worth working on ![]() All told she was off the trailer about 5 minutes but that's all I needed to feel REALLY good about this project.... Oh and I did get to bust a decent sized wake at speed.... got the little thump thump I was hoping for instead of getting slammed.... great riding hull. Now to park her and get to work on other stuff for a while. I am definitely hooked tho... |
