The Jury is still out on the 440's with the new rpm...............
One of the 440's is resting on the pond bottom and I can only smile as it is a K40 which is a few dollars plus a whole shaft that is about a few more dollars and a few hours to make.
Yes it went out with the Typhoons today and looked good down the first pass until I dropped the power for a turn and then it became very obvious that a prop and/or shaft had gone.
This hull has only spat a shaft once before, due to poor fitting by me , so it has never had stub saver nuts fitted. IT WILL NOW !!
I'll throw together a new set of shafts and get this beast back on the water soon.
