Just brought the new lady home. I will post up action pictures a little later in the season once she is completely dialed in;)

My May pic isn't quite as fun. Hopefully June will be better.

Yep. Good memory. The oil pick up tube came out of the oil pump. Burnt up crank bearings and crank. So it's going through another rebuild. Top end is fine this time though.Quote:

Water was still too cold without a wetsuit but it was damn smooth. Can wait to finally get behind it And take some better pictures haha.
Back to water this weekend, with new carburetor and ignition tuning, it's another boat, and I went from 27 liters/hour to 18 liters/hour of fuel !!! With good improvements : No more hesitation on off idle acceleration, no more black smoke at idle, no more black stuff in water coming out of exhausts. And a new PMGR starter, very fast crank, nice sound, no more heat etc.
Happy guy :)
