Almost perfect conditions on the water,nice little chop(6"),with a 28"p Labbed Pro E.T. I actually ran out of rpm's(6800),but it handled awesome.I need a 30p something,to bad i'm putting it away for the year.

Awsome speed, BHealer. You are really getting it dialed in! Where is the prop shaft compared to the bottom of the boat?
 
wow that's movin'! nice job and congrats..... wish i wasn't putin' the starflite away this weekend or i would try to get some better #'s!!! maybe i will if the ole' lady will go for a ride before we bring it home when it's 50 degrees out:brickwall:
 
Wow!


I'm not gonna lie, I'm jealous. I REALLY want to get out on the water and see what I can get out of the V8.

Great job Bluehealer...you're getting closer!!!:thumb: Did you run with all your stock gear on board?? If not, you need to remove your playpen pads, ski locker doors, passenger seat, etc. I bet there's at least 100 pounds that can be taken out...could be good for another 1-2 mph at those speeds!!! I would love the "seat of the pants" feel of a Pulsare flying at 90+ MPH!! What a rush it must be!!!!:eyecrazy:
 
All I can say is.....GIT-R-DONE BlueHealer!!! But be careful damnit! We all want to read about the first 100mph Pulsare on this site.................not in the local newspaper. Know what I mean Vern?
 
Sick!

You have a 1.75 case, right?

What does that put you at for slip #'s? Are you thinking about going any higher in relation to the pad?

What's next!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Keep it up.:bigthumb::cheers
 
I gotta move the engine up,

and yes i'm runnin 1.75 gears.I took the new 28p Pro et to be looked at after runnin it,and told him it was a Merc lab finish,and he just chuckled and said "this isn't a lab finish and theres more mph in this prop without raising the RRRR's.I'll call you next week when its done".Most of the time i'm runnin between 6-9% slip.I'll keep you all updated.:bigthumb:

Don't forget to take out the excess weight!:thumb: You may have a few more runs before the snow comes!
