Trayder's boat is so light with all that Nidacore that it probably could run indefinitely on fumes [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

Trayder's boat is so light that even with Capt Chuck's fat azz on board last October, we still managed to make good time over to the Elizabeths!! [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img] [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

Jason - I tell you what, you invite me on a couple tuna trips this season aboard Thunder Pig and I'll let you keep the tuna as fuel compensation, okay? [img]/images/graemlins/smirk.gif[/img] Who knows, maybe the trip(s) will be so sucessful that we can dub it the "Tuna Pig". [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

Mark/Jason,

What prop are you guys using?

My little brother just had a Suzuki 140 installed on a 19' Grady White Tournament and ran 21/22 mph at 4000 w/ a 14 x17 3-blade Aluminum. He hasn't yet had a chance to run it wide open to see if he can hit the upper end of the recommended range.
