Pulsare Bowrider runs 91.7 first time out this morning!

After installing foot throttle and doing some re-rigging I got to take the BR out today. I'm not familiar with the 300XS, but it was showing right at 6,200 and I was concerned it was about to go into guardian mode? I believe 93-95 is within reach with a bit more tweaking. Good to be back in one! Sean
 
Sean, that's hauling the mail in a bowrider! What's your current setup? I've got friend who is running 104mph gps with a 300xs on a 21' Lake and Bay!!!
 
Awesome. I had it 90.x in North Dakota @ ~2000 ft msl. Was still climbing, but choppy water got it prop walking and I shat myself. Never really had any good water to run it in, or enough room. Hope you get 95 out of it!

Keith, I'd wager any amount I can drive ANYTHING faster than you. Just sayin. :rof:
 
If you had run 90 you would have let the world know.
So what speed did you shat your pants 78? just saying:rof:

before you cuss me, i hope you know me that I'm just fing with you.

It's on one of my old threads. Even have a GPS speedo pic somewhere.

I'm still drinkin beer and running the throttle with one hand and drivin with the other @ 78...

Hot foot throttle is cheating btw ;)
 
I'll be first to say, I would never even attempt to use a stick throttle in a 21' Checkmate. I probably couldn't anyway.:cheers:

Nice job, I love driving away from "performance" boats in a bowlder lol.
My first pass at 80 told me I should install a foot throttle... had one the next weekend! I'm sure you've got more left in it with some prop work.
 
Checkmate

Won't be long before you get the BR faster than your last 21 Pulsare, of course your last boat only had a 250 on it...haha.
 
You can only post pics directly to the site of you have a paid membership. Otherwise you'll have to upload to photobucket and post the IMG links.

Oh, and fast bowriders rule!
