    Maiden voyage

    Well guys.... I finished my SV27 yesterday with the help of Diesel, and a few of the rest of ya.. you know who you are.. lol. Went to the pond today, it was windy and some chop.Check out everything and taped her up and dropped her in the water... She was looking good at about half throttle, didn't want to get her too far from shore, no way to get her back but swim.. lol. She got up on plane quick and looked great!! Just on the way to full throttle and the drive dog broke loose. She was moving pretty good.. not sure of speed but i can tell ya, it had to be over 40.. So there she sat in the middle of the pond... and i had to either wait, or get my swim trunks on.. so i put on my swim trunks and waited for it to blow over to the other side of the pond.. Gonna see if i can fix the dog and try tomorrow.. Also as she sat for 20 mins i thought there was gonna be alot of water in her... there was about a couple drops from the stuffing tube.....
Working...
