It's about that time to post all your cool summer pics. Should be a ton of them by now. I'll start with my favorite not because it's really that awesome but when I put it next to a shot from 23 years earlier I thought it was worthy. Notice much less hair and a quite a bit more weight.

Wow, Magicman you are my hero. Tumble turns 23 years apart. Nice form. Cool that you can still do 'em and with the same handle.

Ken, you're killing the "cool summer" vibe with the snow in that last picture!
Alan, I actually had very similar shorts a few years back, except they had the cargo pockets. Columbia with the elastic waistband right? I went through 2 pairs of those before I got fed up with them. Not only did the balloon up with air, but ripped easily and couldn't get the waist tight enough to stay on during my wipeouts. ------------- |

Yeah what the hell was columbia thinking making a bathing suit with an elastic waistband anyway, forget wipeouts you cant even dive off the boat and keep your shorts.. my friends saw my a$$ so many times they threatened to file a cla$$ action suit against columbia... ------------- http://www.correctcraftfan.com/diaries/details.asp?ID=1477 - 1983 Ski Nautique 2001 1967 Mustang 302 "Decoy" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cO5MkcBXBBs - Holeshot Video |

Lake Powell is quite amazing. Each year we spend ten days on a houseboat. Best part of the year. There is a place called Last Chance Bay where we can get far away from most boaters, set up the insta-slalom, and ski some very smooth water. |

I remember whining this summer when it rained, or I had to work, or whatever; and couldn't go boating. But I was still on my home turf, feeling safe, and loving life regardless. Thanks 1987 for making that sacrifice, and that had I made the same, I feel my life would be just a little more complete at this time.
The very short video clip is a 70 Mustang 273 Chryler in a somewhat week 180 spin. These original Mustang hulls don't bury the nose and raise the stern while swapping ends quite as well as the next gen 71+ hulls. Those will literally put the nose under water like a PWC. This untouched and loud engine runs sweet at 48.3 on GPS,..for now. http://s135.photobucket.com/albums/q131/reidp_photos/?action=view¤t=70Must-OliveOyl-PowerSlide.flv">  ------------- ReidP /diaries/details.asp?ID=231&yrstart=1971&yrend=1975 - 1973 Mustang |

84, you sound like jbear. Yes, I guess I probably did come in a little too close, about 75' from shore, and placed too much stock in an aging steering system, so I don't condone this. My wife had the camera and shut it off too soon, as it did drift "controllably" right up to the dock, 007 style. If anyone ever watched Mystery Science Theatre 3000 back when, they'll notice the two silhouettes (in this case it's dogs) in the foreground of the video just like in the show, which used to cracked me up.

The first picture is a surprise photo that was in our local newspaper. I didn't even know there was photographer around. Somehow he even got my name right. The link below the pic is a video of us having a blast on Labor Day weekend.
Please God, bring summer back.

Great vid. When I was 14 or 15, my dad had a 71 Martinique that would spin hard enough that the base of the windshield would be under water. I used to do it a lot, and I mean a lot, with my friends. Never really thought of the dangers then. That being said, I've always wanted to do it with my SNOB, but that would probably have ugly results! Just feeling how hard it bites in a turn makes me want to spin it, but I definitely know better.

Somebody wanted to buy an Obrien World Team Comp? This one is slightly used, just one owner. Ski is still in great condition. Owner is pretty old though. ------------- It wouldn't be that hard if the balls weren't so far apart and the boat wasn't going so damn fast! |

Really didn't think the photo would end up so large on the screen - scary. I tore the house apart, to no avail, looking for a picture of the 1968 tri-hull that was pulling me. Funny, always thought that the course was much bigger back then. ------------- It wouldn't be that hard if the balls weren't so far apart and the boat wasn't going so damn fast! |

Dallas,
You have a great boat! I wouldn't say it was "uneventful" but all of my boys came home safe. Looking to redeploy in July. Going to miss another season of skiing. Rakkasans! |

Probably too big. Try to reduce them in size. If uploading from you hard drive use the icon with the photo and the blue arrow. If uploading from a website such as photobucket, use the icon with the photo of the tree. BKH ------------- Livin' the Dream |

Ken, Ill venture a guess at 400 hp for that many cubes. Could be more or less depending on the heads, intake and cam. That kind of power should put him in the low 50's on that hull.
Chopper, your pics are probably too big- the size limit for uploading is fairly small. Your best bet is to use a free photo hosting website (like photobucket) and linking them. ------------- |

Now I see it, thanks BKH. That's a lot of HP, I'd love a ride sometime.
Anyone know how much HP a stock shaft and strut setup could take? ------------- '63 American Skier - '98 Sport Nautique |

Ken, he doesnt have a stock motor- I believe he had motor problems and rebuilt the GT40 into a stroker. The 393w is an easy stroker to build- the only truly special piece is the 3.85" stroker crank (vs. 3.5" for the 351). Combine that with stock-length 351w rods and 302 pistons and you end up with 42 more cubes. I believe 393 ci would include a .030" overbore.
As far as power handling goes, I believe the 502 python motor used the same 1.23 tranny and shaft that the standard motors used- so we know its good for at least 425 hp. Im sure Bill Burgess (SS-201) can give some good info on the power handling ability of the 1:1 components. ------------- |

Tim, that's some serious power under that hood. Significant feeling I'm sure between a stock 351, 255HP and stroker engine putting out approximately 400HP. I can't imagine the hole shot that gives. It must turn over 5,000 RPM's I imagine.
I'd like to see how that Vortec 8100, 450HP performs in a Master Craft boat. That's the most stock HP I've ever seen. When does it stop? Ken ------------- http://www.correctcraftfan.com/diaries/details.asp?ID=1052&sort=&pagenum=4&yrstart=1986&yrend=1990" rel="nofollow - Nautique 2001 |

| It might just push that MC to the high 40's. |
Posted By: TRBenj

Looks to be a pretty powerful motor- but those MC's sure need it. Look at the numbers from last year's Waterski Magazine boat buyers guide- the Prostar 190 with the 350 hp MCX was over a second slower to 36 and was 4 MPH slower (it topped out at 42) than the SN 196 with the 330 Excalibur. The MC just has a ton of wetted surface and a hook on the back of the hull- doesnt make for a lot of speed.
I would imagine that 393 that Dallas has will turn well over 5k. Ive seen stock GT40's that can turn close to that, though the 90-96 hull is faster than the TSC1. I can do 4800-5100 depending on the prop. JR VIC is currently tuning his '92 with the Hiteks and other upgrades and just reached 52 MPH @ 5400 RPM. ------------- |
