Well I got her out on Round Valley reservoir.
Other than the fuel start up issue I spoke about on the other thread she runs sweet. Had to run her for break in at 2000 rpm for awhile but did get up on plane and played around a little. It is a 9.9 lake so I am not supposed to run the big puppy but screw them I was on a mission.
She jumps up on plane easy and she sounds like a jet turbine running, sweet very sweet. The G3 feels a lot more solid and steady than aluminum boats I have owned in the past. Quite a few actually and no comparison. She is also heavier. Took her to 3G's on the tach for a minute or or less at a time and she is flying at that speed with half a tank and two guys, that is my bud Jeff who went with me on the inaugural launch. The guy with the new Maycraft. He fell in love with the G3 how solid it felt.
Cant wait to get this ten hour break in done so I can open her up but the weather has not been good. Hopefully some time this week I will get her out again and can go to 3G's for awhile. Will get more pics then when I got more time to play and run.





My bud Jeff, soon to be Capt. of a big boat
;D

Only time I saw him happier was when he donned the swim fins and snorkle and played tug boat in the Indian River!
