Today was my first time at a boat race.People were friendly and they had some bad A&& boats out there flying by.Bogalusa Boat Club put on a nice event , the drivers handle their boats very well and put on a nice showing. Congrats to everyone.The SRG gang with the Mercs brings some very stiff competition.

I tried to get some reeds in time but was unable, no excusses, they showed up monday .They were installed this mornig . Don't see no difference between Carsons single stage or Boyesen dual stage reeds, only difference is you can get 2 sets of Carsons for the price of Boyesens. Still doing max 52.5 mph.
I was also following Beans advice
If you can't run with the BIG boys,
then sit on your porch with your feet up
and sip tea.

It must have been a little race , we race up and down the river not across.
you must not get many RPM out of that old junk you paddle back and forth across the river

orangebeast
07-03-2012, 07:05 PM
I have to beg the differ there, because i set a 40 merc up myself for a buddy to drive, it is completely stock, your more than welcome to come and inspect it yourself, you can bring a parts list of everything that belongs on a stock motor and it will be there, other than the aluminum plate on the lower unit, his motor ran a grand total of 53.6 mph on a 13 ' weldcraft, and it beat motors that was not stock and there swore they where runnin above 55 mph!! Its all in the start of the race!!

JSM86, Ive never owned or raced a 25 but i would say if you can get one to run 45 to 50 mph, depending which hull you have, you would be pretty competitive. just my 2 cents.

We match up who ever shows , if only one 25 shows we will try to move him up , or he can always race Bill Kopoug who has an old 35 deflector , between our motor inspectors,
Mr Glen Hopkins , Mr troy Edwards , Mr John Henly Mr Cern Addison , They know who's stock and who's not , if only one shows we will ask do you want to move up ,or your money back , one run we will know if you should be moved up , will put them in there on bracket , win there class , we are just racing for braging rights any way!:D
Stock lower unit to keep down cost , lowwater ok for mod's

Ok, so its based more on the speeds you can run than the actual motor mods. Just making sure something as simple as cutting the head a little will put you in the modified class against a ported motor with tuned pipes, custom intake/carb setup, etc on a hydroplane. Lol. But it's all in fun I will race whoever. Thanks for info.

We try to keep it as even as we can , I said in a post before It is kinda like beating up your sister if you win you should ( and we talk bad about you ) if you lose ,we will rag you about it , so the point is there is no reason to over match some one , if you are way faster we move you up ,if way slower move down
