Im jumping teams on 2 accounts Starcraft to Lund and OB to IO! Shhhhh... don’t tell the folks over on the Starcraft boards...they might send the starmada after me.

Loving the new boat! Taking it fishing tonight! This year I hope to get my low range hooked up on the front, downriggers hooked up and get it fishing and boating with the kids. This winter ill work on a few things like additional speakers to attract the fish with the vibrations, cosmetics on the scratches and clean up the motor. Going to give it a full tuneup and might consider changing the 2bbl out for the 4. We will see.

hope to get this forum going too - takes someone to be active and then more start to show up. I joined a Nice group on FB too but I try and stay off that.

here are some pics.

Was out yesterday and I think the boat is all good - but i gotta ask...

4500 RPM and was at 38MPH. I hit 41 the other day, so I know it can get there. What speed should I expect?

I know IO is heavy, but this boat seems to have a heck of a wake behind it. Is that to be expected?

Does battery weight and gear really affect this boat? I know it does every boat but I am sure in my 16' starcraft it affects is more than this - just wondering how much I should expect...
