katana600 Posted December 13, 2009 Share Posted December 13, 2009 Bernie, it is the work of your babes to pick on you, you were just getting ahead of us by doing it yourself. The boat is in good form now, it is the operator who needs the tune up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Supernova Posted December 17, 2009 Author Share Posted December 17, 2009 A quick update. My engineer has made a new prop shaft out of super hard steel and new bearings out of phosphor bronze. This will be installed on Sunday. The new fuel mixture is being used next time and we should see a vast improvement in speed and handling. The TOY is run in now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

katana600 Posted December 24, 2009 Share Posted December 24, 2009 "The new fuel mixture is being used next time and we should see a vast improvement in speed and handling." Just what kind of fuel is Elaine giving you Bernie, you may be able to increase your speed, but handling is still being done by Bernie-one-thumb, or did you hire a real driver? Bah that is baby ice, I've been swimming with that little crust of ice on the water, you cream puff. Wade in there and blaze a trail, I want to see that video.
