Andy,
The BBY rigger tested again today on 3s and your intermediate 2047 prop. It was faster and that is what we are after. Never got to test the prop with the works as the wind came up. Tomorrow I hope.
Results below

A few weeks ago...
3s Zippy Flightmax 30C, Neu 1521 1D, Hydra 240, 2047 = 95.6 kph or 59.4 mph

Last time out...
3s Zippy Flightmax 30C, Neu 1521 1D, Hydra 240, 2047 = 97.2 kph or 60.4 mph
The only difference was about 5mm removed from the rudder.

And today's with the intermediate 2047
3s Zippy Flightmax 30C, Neu 1521 1D, Hydra 240, 2047/intermediate = 98.6 kph or 61.27 mph

It is only a small increase but it is those small increases that add up to significant numbers at a later date.

Sorry to bugger up a good thread with a boat test. Shame on me.

Andy,
Another test of the BBY 38 inch rigger again this morning. Here are the results...

3s Zippy Flightmax 30C, Neu 1521 1D, Hydra 240, 2047/the works prop = 99.9 kph or 62.07 mph

I must say that this in one nice prop Andy. It is so thin and has the best shine of all my props. Well done young fella. We have to remember that this motor is not happy with 3s so it is putting up good speed considering that. I think 70+ mph on 3s would be easy for this boat and a more suitable motor. We might go down that road in the future.

Well LIFT THAT STRUT !!!!!!!!! IT is way to deep and you will get close to 70mph. When the strut at good height then you can put that plank you call a rudder on more of a diet, get serious mate !!
On another boating note I decided to name my Seaducer today. Moderators don't tell me it should not be here because kids read this thread because I am sure that kids of today have NO problem using the F word !!!!! Now if it is for the complaints from the animal rights groups they should not bag it until they have tried it !!!

Oh that is rude. Fancy putting the word "Seaducer" on a boat. That is a very suggestive word, and one that is better used in describing you and not the boat.

Sorry Paddy, I should think before I leap. Will not do that again!!!

Oh that is rude.

Only because "SHEEP SHAGGER" did not fit!

Chuck good to see you are awake mate, will call the next slow tug boat I build " Sheep Shagger " in honor of Douggie. Talking of Douggie I have not seen the props we are meant to have the prop contest with ?? Have you received yours yet ??

[ozzie-crawl]

thats terrible andy and cannot believe you would use the ""S word
but then again i have now and then said "NITRO"
as far as the other writing on the boat both those words are now taught in pre school well except for duck as its a little harder for kids to say

Andy, you are a bit of a card. but I love you and your no nonsense approach to life...What the hell trim tabs are on that red abomination of a hull trying to be a tug???

By the way I met a lovely Sheila cashier from Brisbane at the local Safeway grocery store here and I mentioned I had a few mates from her dark continent as soon as I mentioned Broken Hill and the name Andy she just rolled her eyes.

Douggie

[andym]

I wonder where that prostate loving homo Douggie is ?? Have not heard from him for some time. Perhaps he is to busy studying Proctology to get his head out his arse,

[andym]

Hey Douggie you are alive !!!!! Good to see. There are no trim tabs or turn fins on that hull it is the end of the boat stand you can see, as for tarts from Brissy when you catch em ya got a $uck em !! Kind of like sheep only smellier

[andym]

Andy and all just in case you think I am missing in action I will be visiting my birthplace for a couple of weeks and It is going to be kind of neat to be on my tod. I might get lucky and meet a wee hen who thinks I am the most gorgeous,gregarious,intelligent person she has met and that my wee cock is a wonder to the fullmilment of all ladies....Dolly already knows this.
