One other "little" trick. If ya can get hold of a Triton I (Hoss) Size is what ever your tryin' ta do and able ta turn. Try it with 2 thrust washers in front of tha prop. It does make little difference. Keep us updated and don't forget tha safety stuff..............T

Safety not only means life vests and kill switches etc etc but it also means responsible driving. Things such as when over taking a smaller or slower boat they have the right away so give them a wide berth or slowing up in the no wake zones or where someone is fishing an area......dont buzz em and CERTAINLY dont cross a wake behind another boat in the manner that idiot did.

i usually try to go out early in the mornings to run... when there is little to no boat traffic. Plus the water is usually a little calmer...
