X2 NUMBERS ?????

Any updates on how she ran..

I still see it there each time I check on my build. One of the 1350's is out due to failure. Boat never got delivered and the ball has been in Mercury's court for months.

Last I heard they still can't make it work right and may be refunding the $$ to the owner. It doesn't want to plane.

A little birdie told me they filled the transom 2 or 3 times changing the X to get it to work but no workie.I give Bob a A for effort.A lot of wasted time and $$$$$$.

That's really disappointing to hear I was looking forward to hearing the numbers. Wonder why it wouldn't plane?

The issue is not the rigging ... it's the motor itself ... it's been shipped by to Fon du Loc for analysis. Issues with the 1350's are not "un-common" I've been told ...

That's impossible. Mercury sprinkles a type of fairy dust on their motors that no other motor builder can compete with. lol

Inconceivable......

He should just put the Teague power plant in that bad boy and be done with it already.

Thanks for the update on the Speedster seems like that would be a cool setup. I believe it will get dialed in at some point. Shit can't ever be easy.

Too late to put a pair of tcm 1050s? That last one with the Teagues was a a runner!
