Post by gdcardoza »

Thought I'd post a quick video of my boat cruising last weekend on Lake Simcoe!

nice flat wake.

these boats are amazing up on plane, especially when there are some seas to deal with.

Nice. I see you have a little bit of steam. What was the water temp? What RPm were you running? She sounds good.

Looks good, although you're burning 1 gallon a minute at 4000 rpm's. The boat seems happy at that speed though.

To hell with the fuel consumption! there's just something magical when you push those throttles forward and the "Fat Girl" jumps up on plane and takes off! :P
I wish I could run her like that all the time!

OH CANADA!!! i love the sound of those engines and the wake behind. i do like the delta conic ride too. i've experienced it first hand with mike and cathy kulp on their mid cabin. i'm curious. do the sedan models ride just as well?
