On the other hand, I do believe there is a 70 in that prop with ideal conditions. If I can, I will try to run again. Soon that bay I run in may freeze up. Salt water or not, it does freeze. In the mornings, there has already been skim ice covering the canal at work. But there is a good amount of fresh water run off there from the streets. No run off at the bay I run.
    Vin I ran for years in the winter at the old Baldwin boat ramp when the fresh water was hard

      Thanks Chris.. I have run at the Freeport ramp a few times, but its best to go at slack tide. The water can rip in that little canal.

        Horrible weather for the past few days, nothing but wind (perfect weather for flying a kite). However all these goodies will make up for it welll! That prop in the top right 2nd row is the one that I'll be looking to break my record with. You know you got something special when your prop guy gives the prop a born on date! It looks like Santa is coming early this year!

            The best I can get is 68.8mph with Vinny's prop in my boat with my setup. The water was glass and perfect no wind at all. I almost didn't make it to the lake in time before it got too dark. But just enough time for one two pass run. No video because the big rush out the door and I didn't get time to check the battery in the camera and of course it was dead when I got it out at the lake. It was getting dark quickly and I'm not sure it would have been a very good video anyways. Below are a couple of pictures.

              Once again.... Thanks for taking the time to test it out. Now I need to be able to duplicate that speed myself. While I didn't get to test very much, my best run was 5.5 mph off from yours.

                [QUOTE=MADRCER;705944] "The best I can get is 68.8mph with Vinny's prop in my boat with my setup." Too bad Vinny didn't set the speed with his boat and him driving it because then he would have bested his own personal record and would have moved up on the ladder. . .maybe still give him credit. .LOL

                    Yes, I am hoping the weather breaks here. Its been ridiculously cold and windy. We should be finishing up at work next week. May have some time off to play if the weather allows. Along with a ton of other projects, gonna work on the Zelos motor mounts when I am off.

                      Veles 29 @ 74mph!!

                      I know my batteries have some wear and have to be getting weaker but still not too bad for the Green Machine to still get 74mph... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3idxy2ryrEk

                        Another nice run with the " Green Machine " . Hope to run mine this week. The weather is supposed to change for the better around here soon. I need the water to turn into a liquid again.
