It will be a while before I can run anything here. Its been ridiculously cold here. Although its supposed to warm up this week, the damage has been done. I hate the winter.

Geico 29v3 Hits 78mph (126kmh) stock

Here, Veles, Veles, Veles...

This run I actually duplicated my previous best to the exact mph....So I wanted to add this video since I have added "other 3831 equipped boats" to this thread. Sorry to dig up an old thread and double post, I only did it for reference and verification since the doubters are always lurking... I'm still mad at myself because I ran this close to the dock AGAIN and had to let out early due to the bank and fisherman. I'm not done with this boat yet...

Old skool running 81mph with dasboata prop!!

Miss Geico 29 says....Gotcha VELES 29!!!

I knew that I left some on the table in my last run due to running too close to the bank and having to let off early. Today's run the speed was 81mph by the logger and 80mph by the Dynamite gps. Thanks to Travis (kfxguy) for some of the best and FASTEST flex shafts that I have ran...Lol! Please see the end of the video for shout-outs and for the data-logger speeds explained for anyone doubting this run this will show you how long the boat held 81mph. It clearly shows that the boat hit 81mph for several steps in this run. For those who can't see this video in internet explorer (for some reason) here is a direct link https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ILaRY_6eWIs

Nice work.

[kfxguy]

Nice! I bet that lady fishing was glad to see you lol.

You need to ditch the tape and install a hatch seal setup like I use. Much less hassle.

[rw442]

Wow that thing is hooked up nice run I could only get 59- 61 mph with my Blackjack and then it was very close to a blow over with the stock electronics and a Dasboata custom 642 wanted to ask you when you set your prop strut height how many millimeters high is it from the top of the mount? I have always have mine set at 3 mm above the and seems to be the best I can get any higher it wants to cavitation any lower and it keeps the nose down and slows too speed . Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks Steve!

Thanks Travis! I was there first but if you would have been there on my run right before this one I bet you would have had a smile on your face from the NICE lady... Too bad my second run was the faster of the two or all would have got to see that interaction on the video.... Yea, Hatch seal all the way!

Thanks Ronald! I run an OSE strut and If I remember right it is slightly taller than the OEM Geico strut....but I haven't ever measured the distance above the top mount. I always measure the strut distance up from a level surface since I like to run a certain degree of + or - to my setups depending on the conditions and it would be a nightmare to measure 2 or 3 places on top of the mount (for me anyways) since on my setups the top of the strut is rarely ever perfectly level. My setup running an abc prop is totally different than yours with a x642 prop, but with that prop "ballpark" should be somewhere around 1/8" up from the bottom of the sponsons and level. Good luck with it!

Man, how the hell are you going that fast. Maybe that pond is down hill!!!
Seriously, I tip my hat..... another great run.

Thanks VP! Hmmm...Just luck I guess... I do try to keep my head tilted so you can't see the 45° slope of the lake. ..

So, that's how you make the pond look level. Trick camera work.

100% ALL stock Veles 29 hits 69mph!!!

100% all stock Pro Boat Veles 29 (prop and all). The stock prop was prepped by Chris Hoffmann (Dasboata). I ran this prop again because I wanted to see what the boat would do now sine it's dialed in pretty decent. The gps devices recorded the boat at 68.2mph and the gps logger got the boat at 69mph. Big thanks to my prop smith Chris Hoffmann (dasboata) for the awesome prop work!
