New Power

A pic of my dash layout. As you can see there is little view of the original instrument panel.

Mine is on top too but I sit in a helm chair. Really never thought about the side

[Snookerd]

My seat is too far back to sit without the side controls. Eric-That is a solid benefit of having your seat closer forward! I guess the trade-off is that it a bit softer ride farther back.

Woo Hoo! In a few days we will have two Hermco bracketed Tsunamis with DF300 power.

I wish we both had the same bracket though as mine is the double set up for a 30 inch single. We still should be able to compare notes on propping which will help a lot. I'm going to start with a stock 20' 3 blade. It may be a little much but considering the weight lost in the rebuild I might be in range.

I`m not jealous much... at all.
I`m not really.
Just wrenched a grand of parts in my weenie mo truck and a new paint job.
Paid off for 9 years now.
Zero revolving debt...
Hmmm.
Duo prop 350...vs twin `97 rude 150`s.
I know the twins will draw less and be more stable on a skinny girl,
but I`m jealous.

They look great gang and the economy thanks you as does our green orb
of water enjoyment we call home!

Getting closer with the facelift...

25" motor on that bracket looks great. The embossed, hologram ID Card is currently being minted.

Junior did partial break-in run today...
50 miles of 3000 rpm and less 10 gallons burned !

At 3000 RPM was at 26.8 knots.

He is a very happy camper.

Tomorrow rest of break-in and WOT time.

Also whats up with Suzuki, they do not have a flush muff for these engines..... humm, I'm on it !

More to follow.
