Yabba Dabba Doo!
First run is under our belt!!! Gotta love the first run growing pains. all in all it was a huge succes all the way around. We ran with the cowling off to allow for carb tunning and adjustments. We still need to play around with the Exhaust lengths on the quiet pipes and dial in the trim heights of the drives to get them spot-on...but we are getting there. Yes it was running wet but because we wanted to be conservative this first time out. All in all I would say we ran just at a full tank of fuel through her... for some reason the water pumps were just trickling water out through the outlets while the boat was sitting at idle. Not sure what the deal is there but Tony is on top of things while I get in his way...not a problem.
Enjoy we sure did!
Here are some links. Prop is a ABC 2916-3 (thanks Scott S) It's getting there!
