You sure you can handle a boat like that, Mike

 

[SayMikey]

Sure I have logged thousands of laps......u

I'll leave that one to you then. I'm still working on building new boats and running my old 2000 Elam

Nova 67 ran well this weekend for its first outing. Got a second and a win made the final but flipped it in rough water

Mike,

Did the new Nova-67 pull a Prather 250?

Just Curious?

[SayMikey]

A full sized 255

Mike,

If the new motor is really STOUT you should cut down a 260

to 58 mm and see how it works?

I think you will be SURPRISED!!!

Enjoy Testing,

Mark Sholund

Good idea! I have prepared many 260's cut to 57 and 58 mm! ;-)

Light Scales can handle cut down 265's also.
