    Norm, Sounds great - a little late in the season now and with the holidays coming up, but there is always next year.
    Thanks,
    Dave

      i would like to get together also. i also live on a pond and run my boats all the time. the big difference is if i see you in my yard i shoot first then bury next. i am hoping to have a couple of boats ready for next year. my brother has one also. so keep me informed. i could run some here.( i only run mine the neighbors dont mind! sorry no gassers) so no more excuses.lets run some boats with others in the hobby.

              Sounds good. I live in Randolph just south of Boston. Should be nice to have some other boats to race against and talk shop.

              What type of boats do you guys have? It would be nice if there were some similar setups.

                    Just what I was looking for. Looking for a bunch of local guys to meet and run with. I am 40 min. from Boston. Hoping to get a Aquacraft UL-1 this winter and get it ready for the spring.

                    So, count me in boyz!

                        It seems there are a lot South Shore guys... Great, I go to the Cape often and it'll be along the way.

                        The H&M XsessII hull is really nice rigger with a 1515/1Y Neu or a Feigao 7XL or 8XL motor running 4S and CC240 ESC. You should be able to push 70mph. http://www.hydromarine.de/hm_11351.htm. Contact Oliver Siess. However, the exchange rate may not be great now. The two Aussies, Andym and Xzessperated, are very helpful and are masters on this hull. Here is the thread which helped me:

                        http://forums.offshoreelectrics.com/...light=xzess+ii

                        there is also a video link by them in thread too - absolutely amazing speed! A hydro requires great skill and technique to run correctly. I haven't finished the build as I've been so busy... SprintCat 40 is next since I have a 5in rail mount, 1527/1.5D, and CC240HV lying around.

                            Hey Greenblast, I have the same setup on my MM - the 9XL is perfect for 4S. I use a m545 and the speed reaches 50mph. That's about the limit for a Feigao XL motor on the MM. A Neu 1515/1Y can get you an additional 5-10mph. You can push 60mph on this hull, but everything has to be setup perfectly.

                            I have the UL-1 that's still in the box. I'll have to make the mods to the turn fin over the winter.

                            Hey guys, don't forget to recharge your LiPos every 3 months to keep them fresh!

                            Another 4.5 months until we hit the water - YAWN!

                              I cooked a newly rebuilt/repainted setup last TDay. Fiegao 540XL, Etti 150 w/caps, JW wire drive, Grim L40 57/3...I stupidly did not seal the shaft tube to wire drive exit at motor and took in water, fried controller...and smoke on the water....
