So... dang she rides nice. Ran up the north end of the lake where it turns into a river that leads to a set of locks and had a riot trimmed and jacked up WOT sliding around the bouys like a slalom course. Got a couple nice largies under the bridge and along the lily pads. I don't have the hole shot ...

Thanks Guys. Tomorrow will be a better trial. Going to hit the lake at daybreak with my Brother in Law and slam some Hawgs! The switches: https://www.otrattw dot net I should have performance data but I think ypu guys are correct already - the jack plate can come up at least an inch. I'll have to la...

Sorry guys, I searched and cannot find how to change title, but Tangles & Snags is splashed ! Still lots to do, fuel gauge readds 1/4 when she is full, GPS speedo inop, still sorting out Raymarine mounts, lots of other stuff but heh, she ride like a dream ! Took out on Lake Simcoe today, headed ...

Thanks Dustin. They did the outside of the hatches, but I did all the insides with bilge paint. I still have to do the underside of the hatches but that can wait. Hopefully in the next weekend or two I can get the Kiwi grip done, I have no idea how long that will take as I have never done it but it ...

Oops missed a question; I have an Evinrude 115 Ficht that was new on my last rebuild project. I believe it is the same motor as BarraMan's. Runs like a top, sips gas, barely uses any oil. I hope to pay opff what I have spent so far and with the weight to get the zippy performance I like I'll need a ...

Thanks everyone. Jack plate: this is mounted so that on te full down position, the cavitation plate is level with the bottom of the hull, so the entire apparatus is actually as high as it can go. But that having been said, now I need to double check and make sure the shop did in fact do this! Weight...
