    I/O set up - Drive Height New 27 Speedster build

    Why are you running an SCX drive. Either you are way down on HP or your set up is way off. I am running 800 HP with a BRAVO X upper. ( 1.36 ratio ) I am at 2 inches above and a 28 BRAVO 4 blade at 6100 RPM at 112 what is your HP???

    Any past DMax owner drive a new DMax?

    I just bought a new 2018 and love it. Yes I can feel the increase but my 2006 was chipped. I think a lot of it is the new transmission. Sent from my XT1254 using Tapatalk

    Air Conditioner Maintenance (HOME)

    SEER rating has NOTHING to do with temperature splits. A 10 SEER 3 ton A/C package puts out the exact same amount of BTU's as a 20 SEER system. The difference is that the 20 SEER unit does that 3 tons of cooling for half the cost. I don't like ANY type washable filter. They are restrictive and...

    I agree with the not passing on the right. BUT you need to watch the video again. Look at her wake. And then the copilot a is motioning for her to go farther to the right. Yes I understand that it is a river and she is in a long turn but she did turn into his roost. Sent from my XT1254 using...

    As narrow as the river looks there per your overhead view it looked to me like she was on the right side of center and then when the fast boats started to pass her she turned right toward the shore without even looking. Typical novice move. And show me where I professed myself as being an HVAC...

    Seems that the asshole level on this site has gone up a lot lately. I don't care if he was on the inside of the corner she turned into him a lot more than she needed to. And to dispense with the asshole. I boat primarily on a large river also. So I know all about Turing corners and holding your...

    First Washdown of the weekend

    What i saw in the video was her very obviously turning to the right. If anything the Skater held his line. The HTM drove into his roost by continuing to turn right. At the speed the Skater was going does anyone that drives a fast cat think he could have turned in front of the HTM that fast at...

    Another set up question....

    I added a neutral box to my 26 ( same hull as yours ) But I can't tell you what changes it made. I did a LOT of changes at the same time as the box. I have been told by CAT experts that very few cat's don't like a box. Adding a box allows you to mount the drive higher. This also gives the drive...

    Throttle over the docks...

    If someone in the middle wants to leave they just untie, pull out and the boats pull together and tie up again.

    If this is your first cat You will have to learn to drive a boat all over again. A cat drives and handles totally different from a V. don't cross big waves or wakes at slow speeds at an angle. You can stuff a sponson and flip the boat. Cats can bow steer at speed very easily. Cats ride on air so...
