Every year for the last few years I have asked a few of my close Allison buddy's to come to my cabin on Wheeler Lake the 3rd week in July to run and test boats. We usually do a lot of fishing in the same trip. This year's rain's were aggravating and held us off some but Seth Lee and Woody sure didn't seem to mind. They lapped the field with their catches of giant smallmouth. LOL. Anyway, we were able to do a lot more testing on prop/boat setups this year for the 250R as well as for Sport 250, Pro XS, and more. Trouble-shooting hole shot, mid-range issues and top end running issues is a a challenge and is a trial and error proposition at best, but we all loved looking at the data and analyzing what made any one change to a boat setup better or worse. I learned a lot from these guys. Thank you Jeff Wood, Tim Powell, Joe Lee, Seth Lee, Jonathan Bowling and Johnny Johnson. I wish all you (my friends) could come some day and be part of the craziest 3-ring circus on the lake. Our findings and data this year should help us all in the Allison Boat Family. We missed you this year Geoff Erickson. Next year buddy.
