I am having trouble editing my posts to delete the signature. Can JW, Gus, Chris, or any of the hidden boys delete these last 2 posts of nothing for me. Keep the pictures of course...
 
Is the drive shower factory now or did you do that Bill?

Bill, I got your pics bro. Sorry I didn't post them, I was away on the weekend and didn't have my good laptop nor DSL. So thanks Z for getting them posted.

JW, the drive shower was put on by me, I don't need it, but I like the "cool" factor. It never hurts to keep the bearings a little cooler either.

Chris, I figured you had cabin fever after a long winter and finally got out to play, you deserve it!

Bill.....pictures don't show up the flake very well.....bet it looks good in person in the sunshine!!Roostertail shot is nice!
 
When I'm up at the cottage it's pretty remote. I only get dialup access and my best speed is 22K.

I get 10 hours a month free with my DSL so if you guys send me stuff, I'll probably have to wait until Monday when I get home. So if you see me around but not putting your stuff up, just bare with me I probably know about it but am just waiting until I get home.

Kip, Pictures just don't do the boat justice, it is awesome in the sun. In the 4 times I have been on the river, I think I have already recieved more compliments than all of last summer with the Diplomat. Man... does it get the stares on the road too. In my eyes, the flake really makes the colors JUMP on it in the sun!

Come on JW, you have to do more than double it!!!

Kip, believe it or not, I did not scrub off any speed ith the rooster tail. Where the trim was set, the prop shaft was only about 2-3 degrees past horozontal, tuck the drive to horozontal and it still throws about a 3 foot high roostertail!

Really??? That is one HECK of a nice high X-dimension then! Where is your propshaft centerline compared to the bottom of the boat when the drive is perfectly level Bill? You may have your propshaft as high as an outboard........

Prop shaft is 3.5 inches below the keel. It is high enough for me to question if I need to plug some holes on the upper water intake. Considering Mate never ran my boat/engine/drive/gear ratio combo, they nailed the set-up. Preety respectable I say to 6un a "true" 64 with a small block and a stock prop.
