Well, we're leaving in 1 hour heading out to Lake Berryessa with the Biesemeyer Flatbottom for the Mother's Day event.  Gonna try and run it again but this time none of our kids are going so I won't have to spend the day giving rides and will actually have time to play.  WHo knows, maybe there will be someone there that will see my big FOR SALE signs that are taped to the scoop and they'll come over and hand me a wad of cash :D

I know, mother's day is tomorrow but there are already lotsa people there with their boats and besides, I'm gonna head out to my mom's house tomorrow for mother's day. :good

Just got back from the lake.  It was kinda windy but otherwise nice.  I only ran the boat twice for 3 "laps" each time, and not running it that hard.  It just hurts too much to use the cavitation plate pedals.  We didn't take any pics because the battery on the camera was almost toast and Mrs BBT wanted to save it for a video of the boat running, which she did get, and we'll post a link to it later when she does her pc magic with it.

OK, the video is up.  It's kinda shaky because Mrs BBT was standing on the trailer in the water while taking it.  I wasn't going that fast either due to the rough water and lack of being able to use the pedals correctly.  Rough water = Pain in Lower Back :D   Anyway, here it is. http://www.pritek.net/bboat/5-8-04.mpg
It is best and faster if you right click on the link and save it to your hard drive :D  Right click on the link and hit the "save target as" and then save it to where ya want (I usually save them to my desktop)

Yes I had the plates loked out at about halfway so I didn't have to push on the pedals more than I had to.  It hurt my back enough as it was just being on the rough water :( .  It will free up alot more than what the video showed and as you can hear by the engine, I wasn't even hardly giving it any throttle.  It's much faster :D

Thanks everyone.  It was kinda shaky video but they will get better in time.  I was just out playing around in the boat.  What the video didn't show was the boat filling up with water.  I either need to drive this thing faster or put a splash guard on the back :D  :laugh

I think I'd go with pushing on the fast pedal instead of putting a splash guard on it!. :eek  :rotflmao  :rotflmao
