Almost 10 months after the http://www.correctcraftfan.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=34453" rel="nofollow - Original incident , I finally got out last night for the first cruise post repairs.... SHE FLIES!!!! I've never felt it run this strong before.. The launch struggles posted http://correctcraftfan.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=35586" rel="nofollow - here are completely gone (most likely caused by my http://correctcraftfan.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=36091" rel="nofollow - damaged carb .) There's still some things to tidy up but for now it seems the boat is back in action. Sorry for the poor quality photo its a screenshot of a video  The shaft alignment basically took all day last Sunday. EXTREMELY tedious process constantly checking and adjusting and checking and adjusting, but I finally got it. NEW: Carb ACME 540 Tune up kit Special thanks Kevin - Hollywood, for dropping off new spark plugs Rob - Jonny Quest, for the great deal on a basically new carb Other related posts: http://correctcraftfan.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=35552" rel="nofollow - Prop Fitting http://correctcraftfan.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=35917" rel="nofollow - Repaired Strut |

The smile on your face at her first run must have been priceless I guess  ------------- - Gun control means: using BOTH hands! - Money doesn't make one happy, but when it rains cats and dogs, it's still better to cry in a Porsche than on a bicycle... |

Well done, Lad. One of the finer things in life is making your CC go from broke-down to screaming across the lake. JQ ------------- Current 2003 Ski Nautique 206 Limited Previous 2001 Ski Nautique Open Bow 1994 Ski Nautique Open Bow Aqua skiing, ergo sum |
