Cooper just saw your pm. So guys she took her maiden voyage today. We took her out on 7s in wye mode with a 447. Everything went perfect to where we couldn't ask for more. Speeds were in the 90 range will get gps readings some time later this week.my youtube videos http://www.youtube.com/user/chris81983?feature=mhee

Rabosi you are welcomed at any point in time. It would be cool to get together with other people and run. I need to say I am entirely satisfied with this build. Its amazing how stable this 115 is. It runs flawlessly in any water conditions. Even though this is the second one I built and have ran them 100 plus times they will always keep surprising me. Anyone who is debating getting one go for itmy youtube videos http://www.youtube.com/user/chris81983?feature=mhee

Thanks Chris. I recently picked up a used C5009 (two previous owners) that ManuelW built. I have not had time to try it out but I believe it's set up to run around 70 mph which is fine for me right now. But it will be nice to hit that 100 mph mark someday though I'm well aware the trials and perils involved with that goal. Because of my work rotation I won't have weekends off until October. I will check with you then if you have not shut it down for the season yet.

I run all year round it take a lot to freeze my lake I run at. Its 100 feet deep and 3/4 of mile across in each direction. I can also run during the week if need be my work schedule is wacky as well. I have only 1 full weekend and 1 half weekend off a month.my youtube videos http://www.youtube.com/user/chris81983?feature=mhee

I'm thinking of one of these for a winter build, they look extremely nice on the water. I think the "v" bottom ride pad verses the flat ride pads makes a huge difference when running at high speeds. Seems that they cut through any little chop better. At 100mph+ a 1/2" wave is huge. I just saw a 119mph pass by someone, yet another rung on the ladder!! Hey how long would it take you to get from downtown NYC? Like Central Park? My wife visits friend there sometimes, might have room for a boat or two to share the back with our wolfhound.

Hopefully I can make it out some time in October then.

Its pretty awesome watching chris' boat run but I warn you you'll go home that night and order up everything you can to build something comparable lol. I remember the first time I saw chris' boats run I shook his hand and said thanks for making me broke for the next 6 months lol.
I was thinking of having a meet end of October with the generator and some other stuff. The lake really dies down. Cooper The lake is about an hour from NYC I considered running my mhz in central park as I'm a student in the city I'm not sure how people in NYC will take a 100mph boat blasting by them in row boats.
