    Heres the new boat.

    Well it is new to me at least. These pictures are from a lake we test drove the boat at in Georgia. Long trip from Tulsa to Atlanta. Well worth it though. I have since added my existing X104 to the front of the boat, X19 to the dash. relocated gauges to fit the unit on the dash. And will be adding my hydraulic plate this weekend. I am seeing about 81 GPS now. I am sure there will be more to it. I hit the limiter at 80 the other day and scared the living crap out of me. I will get more pics as I take them.

    Nice What prop are you running with that you hit the limiter on an XB? It should be limited at around 6400 and recomended max is 6100. Mine runs its best between 6000-6100. You may need to pitch up. I'm at 85.7 gps @ 6050 with a stock 27 trophy.

    26 trophy. I can not seem to get out of the hole even with this prop with both livewells full. It does not have tabs on it. It just hangs around 4200 and never breaks over. well i say that. it eventually breaks over. both wells empty and a partner i have no problem. The tach is being sent off to faria. It hits 5500 and stops. the rpms travel more but the tach does not move. I dont know if it would ever get out of the hole with a 27 trophy. I am willing to try one if there is one close. I never heard a beep on the limiter. I am guessing that is what i hit. Because it dropped the rpms and nearly threw of us out when the boat dropped. . I figured i hit something then it did it again at WOT. This happened while racing another boat down the channel at take-off sunday morning. After the secod time it dropped the rpms I just kept it at 78 and figured he was not going to run that fast. Not naming any "brands" but I was right.

    My tach did the exact same thing. I bought a used on from another member here and it worked perfectly. My boat has some problems with holeshot when very loaded, but the tabs fix that with just a push of a button. I had to play with motor heights and trim settings, but I finally found a setting where my boat will jump out of the hole at WOT without cavitating.
