    Gilbert and Kevin's Twin Motor HPR 135 on 8S

    First wet with two motors. Two Leopard motors singing a sweet song

    Short shakedown cruise using motorized pump closed loop cooling. Impeccable build

        Boat stopped, then re-started. I didn't stay to find out what happened. The SC's had no LVC, outboard LVC's weren't in the circuit so no idea what happened. I think it lost signal; happens a lot at that corner of the lake.

            From what I observed, there's a water resevoir and an electric pump which just circulates and returns water to the resevoir. It simply is an experiment with more additions to come to make it truly efficient.
