the Nerds V-mate II on the river

Motor size

Hey Its the same as mine. What the HP? Did you change the steering gear?
I am going for a 115 optimax or 135 V6 . Thanks for the video. I am always driving.
:bounce:
 
GREAT long run!! My lake is only 1.5 miles long, so my WOT runs last seconds, not minutes!!
 
this run was around 5 miles or so. we have a 12+ mile stretch to run WOT.

from the z bridge to hooters is around 9 miles. 2 miles or so of that is no wake once you get to bay city. all of bay city is no wake except for 2 small parts. from hooters to the bay is another half hour in all no wake.
 
It has dual cable steering installed by the previuos owner Chucker.

I wasnt able to do many long runs like that, I was haunted by a fuel delivery issue most of the summer. Why I waited til the end of august to remove the intank fuel filter one will never know.

I think we hit 57 on the GPS, I am not real concerned with overall speed, it it a fun boat to drive.
 
Very nice video!!
It is the clearest video I have seen on YouTube.
Can you tell us what format/resolution you used??

Nice looking boat too!!

Thanks!!

i saved it as an mpg 1 vhs quality. i made it a 94 mb clip. its just under youtubes 100 mb limit. you should see it before youtube got a hold of it.
 
That darn "No Wake Zone", had to slow down. I could watch an hour of that, what a great day on the water.
 
Illmattic, need to have some video taken of your boat from another. I think it would be cool to see now what these boats you've run with get to see.
 
If its warm this coming weekend I could give operating the camera a try.
 
i've said that before too ! been waitin to see you tearin up the river ! vid is awesome though ! nerd aires out nice too !
