Proud New Owner checking in from Sacramento

Turn & Burn

New member
Allow me to introduce my recent acquisition: Turn & Burn! She's a 1987 Starflite with a 2012 200hp Evinrude Etec with about 72hrs on the engine. Also came with a hydraulic jack plate., which I'm still figuring out how/when to adjust it. So far, top speed is ~58mph w/ WOT @ ~5800rpm. Prop is a yet to be identified "rebel", but I think it's not ideal and with the right prop I can get her into the 60's. Looking forward to exploring the delta this summer & fall, and hope to do some trips with her to play with the big boys down in Havasu and Powell.
