    Re: Yo Sir Charles: how's the new lower unit? (mha)

    I'm 95% sure it is a Lightning not a Mag2. It looks identical far as I can recall and I used the same prop to do about the same speed (2 mph less than what I guesstimated it should be) at about the same RPMs. Also, no low water pick up that I could see. The speed drop could be because the water was dead flat and the full tank of gas.

    Can't complain - got me to and from Point A and Point B and that's about all anyone can ask on any given day on the water!
