    New lower on Merc 250XS

    Where in the heck did I put that thrust washer? I only took it apart a month or so ago. Now I can't find half the stuff to put it back together. OK, I found all but the thrust washer for the prop. I'm betting the prop testing on NV is where all my bits and pieces went. I'll check there...

    Happy Thanksgiving!

    This is a THE time to give thanks for all we have. First, I want to thank the big man upstairs. Then MJ and Valiant and anyone else that keeps this site up and running. It is a breath of fresh air from some of the other boating sites. I check in daily and it is a bit of therapy...

    World Finals Lucas Drag Boat Series

    World Finals - Dubbed Thrills and Spills for a reason. Oouch! The end of season is a good thing sometimes. There was some quality boats utterly destroyed. It will take the entire off season for the drivers to heal and boats to be made/repaired. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CiVabRJPKzo
