Hi Guys,
Another update,took the boat out on a fishing trip numbers read out 61 miles traveled,total fuel burn 15.7 gallons burned.
Topped off fuel,took 15.1 gallons to fill,not bad!
This trip included high speed runs,trolling,trolling a live bait at 700 rpm and a high speed run home.
The Optimax runs smoooooth,hardly any fumes and hardly uses oil.
Really like the Digital Throttle and Shift system,I set my desired RPM and it holds the setting without any problems.
Caught 3 good sized Mahimahi,one was 45 pounds on a triple strike which woke me up real quick.
Very Happy with this new Optimax motor,it was worth the wait and aggravation,kinda sucked to miss the Tuna season though.
Looking at the big picture I count my blessings and hope all of you who have been impacted by Katrina and Rita are doing OK and are safe and sound.
We had Hurricane Jova miss us by 350 miles and now have Hurricane Kenneth getting started with another forming up behind it.
Bad year for storms.
