Took the boat for a short spin yesterday and got a little video...69mph at the moment, but there's a little left in it...until I build a motor this winter![Devil](https://ls1tech.com/forums/images/smilies/LS1Tech/gr_devil.gif)
A few weeks ago the boating forum I'm on (screamandfly.com) held it's annual rally out on the Columbia river just upstream from Vantage, so I went out there for that...lotsa fast boats out there...several 100mph+ boats...makes my almost 70mph boat seem kinda slow...but at least I own these guys on the street I'm sure tho, lol! So, if you're bored, there's a bunch of random pictures at http://www.rkarasek.com/images/SFNWRALLY/
Here's a video from yesterday...

Yeah, I'm pretty happy with it...it's a 1985 Hydrostream Voyager, v-pad hull. 20 feet long. Seems to be a pretty good all around boat, cruises nice, enough room to fish out of and have some people in it, and skiing behind it is freakin awesome...next to no wake. I even bested myself yesterday, went out and ran it hard for a while, got a max of 70.1mph on the gps...pretty cool considering that motor is pretty much stock! I've got me a new winter project...
I'll have to look that place up Robert...depending on what I do, might end up with a different prop yet. There is no low water pickup on it, so I'm limited in how high I can raise the motor, and when I do that it'll be good for close to another 2mph I think.
