Like Henry said it went good and bad. For the first time out the boat performed well, but the motor is set to far back so it carries the nose bad with one person in the boat but with two people in the boat it was better  I will move the motor forward about eight inches and add the lenco drive line that came with the boat. The only time I GPS'ed the boat was on a solo pass and it ran 113.7 unloading the pump so there is more in her....that is the good news . Bad news is I hurt the motor at the end of the day, and needless to say I now need some new parts :smile18: but I already have some stuff at the machine shop and looking for a get a way driver so I can buy the rest :grin: :grin:
