[Jiggumup]

Can someone measure a few things for me?
Width just in front of the consoles
Width at the front pedestal
Deck length from bow to console

ANd if you could post a pic i would appreciate it

Thanks

Console width is 72 inches.

Front pedestal width is just over 57 inches.

I can lay up to 7 foot 6 inch rods on the deck and not trip over them.

Maybe longer rods will fit but I don't have anything longer that that but it looks to be tight with 7 foot 7 inch and longer rods.

Good luck!

I'm runing a 200EFI with a 3 blade 26" prop and the best I have got speed wise was 62.8 GPS. Not fast but fishes great.

i too have a 200 efi and can get 67mph gps. full tourney load. But average around 64.4 not too bad for an older heavy boat.

what prop(s) are you guys running?

[488TX]

Tempest Plus 25P and +6" JP. WOT at 5700-5900, 63-67 GPS depending on conditions.

Im running the 26p tempest. ( at least im pretty sure i am ) and only turning about 5400-5600 rpms. I too have a 6" jp and am getting an average about 64 mph gps. I could probably tweak out a little more, but i dont mind not running at the red line all day. Plus the boat handles great with this set up. No walk at all and is relatively easy to drive.

Now all we need is for the lake to thaw out and we can actually put it in the water again
