OK, little update.
I was down in Dana today.
Boat looks awesome, really a nice clean job David did.
The motors run great on the muff's.
Very smooth and really seem to shift well.

Looks like we are ready for a sea trial on Monday.
The ocean has been really rough the last few days, because of a storm we had.
We will wait till Monday and go for a cruise.
I just arrived home and realized I did not take photos.
I will get some early this week.

I know, especially for our guys that are weather challenged.

Man I started reading this hoping to see some Aqua Porn!

Bryan,
For seatrial, seeing as the motors are well past the break-in period, my guess is you'll see 54 MPH in calm waters...if you can find some.  Maybe 52.  Dump your gear and lighten the 245 up a little...  

[icemanbryan]

Yeah, I know photos, duh!
We have had about 4 days of crap weather.
Nothing like the rest of the Country but crappy for here.
I had every intent of posting up some photos, we have done quite a bit.
When I say we, I mean David and his worker.
Hang on a couple more days, photos will be up.

Bob, the Pacific looks like Victory At Sea today, not sure how smooth we will see, maybe in the marina :)
I think she will do real well on a smooth area run.

Great news! Looking forward to the splash!

Pacific, from the latin word pacificus, meaning peacemaking...

what props will you be going with?

[icemanbryan]

what props will you be going with?

 Aaron, how is it going?
I actually bought the pair the motors had on them.
Barry, whom I purchased the motors from. He emailed me and asked if I was interested in the props.
They are really clean and I hope they work well.
Ken at Prop Gods recommended the exact same pair.
They are the 17 Rev 4 props.

I think they will work great, we will see in a day or two.

I think challenged is a nice way to put it :)
Here is the GPS reading as well.

Excellent Bryan!  Get them dialed in, trim right, light load, and right conditions, you'll see my 52 MPH.  Really stretch the trim out, might see that 54...

[icemanbryan]

Bob, they were not trimmed out and it was rough, I am sure over 50 in the right conditions.
