    BRX 2400 500R Repower

    what did that 500 end up costing? My dealer is quoting 72,000 + 12,500 for rigging. Coming from a 2016 Verado 300. 85,000 all in. Seems stupidly high to me.

    '91 Pulse 211 - '89 2.4 Xri200 - 10" setback Hydrolic J/P

    Just dug the foam out from the nose. Holy crap that was a pain. Tip if you are going to do it: use a putty knife to unstick the foam from the hull. Then use the claw part of a hammer and start axing away. My foam was completely dry. But I am glad I took it out cause there was a piece of wood...

    '91 Pulse 211 - '89 2.4 Xri200 - 10" setback Hydrolic J/P

    Thanks for the post. I have got an extension to push the motor back another 6". This would make a total of 16" of setback. I am also going to send in the SRX prop to get it reworked so I can run it higher.

    Thanks for the advice to get a bigger engine. Anyone have any thoughts about my current setup and things I can tweak?

    '91 Pulse 211 - '89 2.4 Xri200 - 10" setback Hydrolic J/P

    With the 27" SRX, +250lbs from test 1, I achieved 57mph @ 5650 rpm. Note: ran the best with J/P all the way down (prop did not like cavitating at all, Shes an all blades in the water kinda girl) approx. 2.5" below pad and trim all the way up (about 4-5* more than level with the water) Thoughts?

    HOW FAST IS YOUR CHECKMATE? EVERYONE!

    Thanks for the reply. I am running it today with the SRX prop. I will post new numbers. I thought 20 percent slip was pretty high... I will see if my wife can snap a pic of it from the dock so you can see how it's running on the water. Any thoughts on the foam removal in the bow and under...
