James,
    Whats the deal, you sandbagging over here or what we need to know how that thing runs out. Top speed, hole shot compared to the BFN, how many deep water starts, enquiring minds want to know.

Quick update, my bother Dennis barrowed the Air over the week end to help his buddy get is boat off the lake. His buddy has a mastercrap that for some reason wouldn't run. So he towed it to the boat ramp for him.

I am looking forward to taking Friday off work providing the weather will be nice. I want to run the two boats together and check performance on both. Plus I am hoping the prop that the boat doc was kind enough to send me to try out on the BFN will be here by then.

I think a set of hi-teks are in the pythons future as well. I have to get some measurements and talk to Allen and see if he can make them.

I planned on taking the ones off the BFN this winter when the season comes to an end. If they fit I would just order another set the same way. I wanted to take measurements of the engine cover to see what amount of room is under the cover if any. That way I know if there is any room for tolerance or if they have to be right on.

Oh yeah after todays runs the results are in. The Air is about half a boat length faster out of the hole. Top end the BFN wins out by about 1-2MPH. But today for some reason I was not qhite getting everything from the Air. I was leaving me about 200rpms shy of WOT. If I remember right, I know this is going to sound weird but my previous python was tempermentle to the weather and water conditions. Anyone else experience this with there boat. BFN performed flawlessly as always. The speedo on the Air was touching on 47. The other day it was running a steady 48-49, flirting with 50MPH. I do thing a tune up will also help. As the previous owner told me he had not changed the plugs.

let try this again.

Now that works better.


Looks like lots of fun...sounds good too. Thats the way them boats oughta be used!

Yikes, did you go from neutral to WOT without putting it into gear first?

Youre getting 48-49mph out of the BFN at only 4400rpm? What size is that prop again? I love the look of that boat at speed.

Was cleaning the boat yesterday and decided to get some pics of it. Plus I am thinking about test fitting the set of Hi-Teks off the BFN on the Air. If they work and there is a performance gain more than likely I will be ordering another set.







The boat doc was asking me how they routed the dual exhaust so here is the best pic that I could get with out removing the fuel tank.
