    Default Good Luck...

    Chad is in Amsterdam for a boat show, and I'm at the shop "WORKING".

    The Stoker is basically "Water Ready" but I think Mike Quindazzi, Jr. works for a living and Thursday is a work day.

    I'm leaving Friday for Phoenix for the weekend...

    See you at Parker...

    Please describe what's going on. Maybe we can put our collective heads together to solve the problem before you get to Parker.

    hi ross,
    it seems like i cannot get top end power,everything seems ok until i get to about 4 to 5000 rpm then i put my foot in to it all the ways and get hardly any progress, tried lots of stuff ,3 different props (including a ron hill, a dewalt and one borrowed from bill curtis ) raised motor 1/4 inch at the time about as high as it can go (only 3 threads left on the screws) ,also tried trimming the motor up and down with throtle all the way in and notice a slight increase in speed with the motor in the (way) up position. hopefully i can test wednesday and/or thursday at parker (away from the race course) and solve the problem.I did find a small kink in my fuel line this morning, i am replacing it right now.
