Please help me out here JD. How do you find your car keys?

Sad to hear the news of Joe's death. Not many of the old timers left. RIP Mr.707

Yesterday I made 71yrs. Started in '67 with an K&B eng, OS radio and a Dumas skiddadle mono. Hope to make the NAMBA nationals 50th anniversary! Not very many people will take the time to build and trim a boat. Much less row out to retrieve a dead boat. Can"t just walk out and get the boat...

Not far behind you "Pops"....... Started in '67

Used header and gold K&B carb

I wouldn't trade mine for any other o/b pipe. Got two of them and they seem to run best with only with the K&B o/bs. Tried them on OS o/b but the pipes seem to prefer K&Bs. High rev pipes!

Whats the weight of the bare hull, or as it is now?

Tried to order from //plasticsacryl but site would not take my paypal. Also contact phone number is wrong. Has anyone received any lexan from them?

Thanks Roman. Had lost my JG prop chart. Have lots of I25, so I can modify those... Thanks everyone, Happy and safe Holidays keevan

Mele Kalikimaka Jerry... No brown box, using an Orbit single stick! Like Francis King...... Boat has a K&B disc rotor with Gardner exhaust throttle. Tried the Octura 400 series prop. Not enough lift. Like to see daylight under the boat! Have a Happy New Year! keevan

Need a JG I25X prop to run on an old .40 Cobra (FG round nose sport 40) made in1991, similar to the Lil Hoss. I remember it ran best with a JG I25X prop. Anyone know what would be a good replacement (Octura,ABC,Grim).

Surefire way to find leaks! Tape radiobox, attach fuel tubing to antenna tube, submerge back of boat completely under water. Blow through fuel tubing! You will be amazed at where leaks are. Even will show bad taping job!

Zippkits tug boat makes a good recovery boat... You can put whatever on it's back deck. Also have put a grappling hook with heavy line to clean the pond of debris. Best method is as Tom said, tow a fishing line out to the boat.

Runs great....after you work the exhaust timming. The extra ignition modual and battery is a pain to find space for. All that is not attached to the engine.

Check out Hobbietat (808) 737-9582 Vintage as well as new.... When will you be there?

Thanks Ron for responding! I thought that it would not be allowed but just wanted to confirm. Thought that it might be allowed because it might prolong the life of the top bearing and not really increase performance. keevan

Is it legal to drill a small hole in the OS outboard to lubricate the top bearing? The K&B has one but not the OS. Legal by NAMBA and IMPBA rules?

Happy belated birthday!!! Good luck this weekend! keevan

Thanks to everyone who was responsible for putting on and running this race. Was nice to put a face to all the names that you hear about or talk to. Never thought that I would find so much Aloha Spirit at a boat race. The Aloha Spirit lives in Hobart! Thanks to All for making this trip soooo...
