Yea it is more quiet than I really expected. No on the prop., I might have found a local shop that I can leave a deposit and take some props to the lake to find the right one. Trying to get my motor height right first, but that might change with the prop :doh: I took it in for the dealer to do the predelivery checkup and he seemed to think the prop was ok, All my rigging was good. Just wanted him to do that so there would not be any warrenty issues later :wink: I'm running nmea 2000 network to my garmin for accurate rpm readings from the EMM. Gives me motor Temp, volts and fuel usage also.

Larry,

Awesome! Spent the day on Tampa Bay with Richard and a friend from the Seattle area and Richard told me you splashed and had video of the spray rail performance. Awesome and congrats!!
