Well, I finally got that 25 setup and running on the Brockway. I
"repaired" the prop to get rid of some of the flat spots and tried to
even out the three blades;) Seems to have made a difference, I wonder
what a decent blade would do. Anyway, here are some test runs on a
small lake in CT.

These are big movies, but they run ok.
First two are of tests of different trim settings, the third is a
quick one to prove that I indeed do occassionally "set the hook".

I still got to get a handheld or borrow another one to see how fast I
actually am going, And yes, it does make a difference to me;)

Again a reminder for anyone who is not familiar with my $400 hull,
here are some still shots:
http://www.yaimkool.com
Very little gas, lots of room, I am starting to like this little
skiff... to bad it's so late in the season. Anyway, not bad when you
consider I probably have less than 2 grand into the whole boat.

later, ate that bass, now I need some sleep...

You "fixed" that prop?

Oh - wait a minute - never mind. :)

I have a prop here with a busted blade - cost you $35 to fix it.

I know what kind of prop you have - that's why I offered it.

If you want, I'll drop it off at Boat Works and you can pick it up
when it comes back fixed.

I think it would run like a scared rabbit, at this load, with a
taller prop. It's just loafing along on that one, but runs
really great.

Someone on that lake has a taller prop on a nail in their garage.
The replaced it with one of those stainless beasts that will get

Steeper, more water is pulled over it at the same RPM, making a
light boat like yours go faster at the same RPM.

The blades are at a higher angle without cavitating making the
prop go further in the water on each revolution....

Ask the guys at the outboard shop what they'd recommend when you
take the boat in to show them. Speed goes up...fuel consumption
may even go down, not a bad thing at all.

More pitch. The prop tries to advance further with each rotation,
similar to high gear.

Hi Don!

I responded to your accusations yesterday and even asked you a few
questions. Did you miss that one? I believe this was it:

************************************************** ********
The 'advice' was worth what he paid for it.

How's the boat, the mom, the son, and the wife?

When my daughter dropped out of college and decided to make a nest in my
house, I started charging her $200 a month rent. For some reason she found
this hard to abide. So she moved into an apartment with several other
girls. That lasted about six months, and she then decided to return to
college. That entitled her to move back into the house. She then became a
nurse.

Just a thought, for what it's worth.



So now you've lowered yourself to the Dingy Dan level.
Now it's not just my mom...it's my wife & son too!
Funny thing...you don't expect ant better from Dan, but you tried to pass
yourself off as a 'law & order' man.
I guess that old saying...'it all comes out in the wash' does make sense
here.


Did I say something offensive, or are you just looking for a made up excuse
to be rancorous?

How would we know anything about your wife, your mom, or your son if you
hadn't told us? I passed along a tip that worked with my daughter. I don't
believe I said anything at all about your son or your wife.
************************************************** ***********************

I would think that after that accusation and the 'rancorous' post of yours,
you would have responded.

That's a good plan actually. When my oldest son wanted to live home
after college we charged him rent with the understanding that he'd get
it back if he went to graduate school. Not happy at the time but he's
a lawyer now.

Thanks. Took it back out tonight with the little one. My kid swam
whilst I fished. Got a nice bass and a pretty good trout, but it was a
slottie so I had to throw it back. Slot is 12-16" on Crystal Lake.
Seemed to run a bunch slower tonight with the 90 extra pounds, dunno,
might have been my imagination. Had an electrical problem tonight,
fish finder came on for a second and then off every time I tried to
start it up. October and the water is still over 70 degrees, crazy,
I'm lovin' it...

Crystal Lake in North East CT. Only 110 acres but there is a nice 44

No wonder you guys up north have trouble with golf. You use balls with
"pimples". Down here we use balls with "dimples".

Try 'em, it will make a world of difference.

Golf season isn't over until the temp is below 40F or there's too much snow

hadn't told us? I passed along a tip that worked with my daughter. I don't
believe I said anything at all about your son or your wife.

I would think that after that accusation and the 'rancorous' post of yours,
you would have responded.- Hide quoted text -

Holy ****in' ****! Don't you ever give up? Don, please send this guy
a frekin' naked picture or something, please...


HELL NO! If somebody wants to sit around and take cheap pot shots, they
should answer for them. You weren't the one being shot at. I'm sure you
didn't spend your whole life ducking, taking cover, and quivering!

Not quite sure what you are getting at, he only has words. I have
never spent any time ducking, taking cover, and quivering that I know
of, I can guarantee it would not happen over words...

John... you really need to get away and spend some time relaxing ...maybe on
a Mickey Mouse cruise.
Try it.. it might do wonders for you.

Stop it Don, Mickey Mouse scares me so bad my kid tackeled him and
almost got us kicked out of Disney a few years back;)

Or my skills. These files are huge, 20-30 mb and I don't have the

I got them ok way up here! Just a bit slow loading...especially the first
one.


Hi Don!


I responded to your accusations yesterday and even asked you a few
questions. Did you miss that one? I believe this was it:


************************************************** ********


The 'advice' was worth what he paid for it.


How's the boat, the mom, the son, and the wife?


When my daughter dropped out of college and decided to make a nest in my
house, I started charging her $200 a month rent. For some reason she found
this hard to abide. So she moved into an apartment with several other
girls. That lasted about six months, and she then decided to return to
college. That entitled her to move back into the house. She then became a
nurse.


Just a thought, for what it's worth.


So now you've lowered yourself to the Dingy Dan level.
Now it's not just my mom...it's my wife & son too!
Funny thing...you don't expect ant better from Dan, but you tried to pass
yourself off as a 'law & order' man.
I guess that old saying...'it all comes out in the wash' does make sense
here.


Did I say something offensive, or are you just looking for a made up excuse
to be rancorous?


How would we know anything about your wife, your mom, or your son if you
hadn't told us? I passed along a tip that worked with my daughter. I don't
believe I said anything at all about your son or your wife.

No, meant it. My kid was a big Mickey fan so we took her to Disney.
When it came time to meet Mickey they ushered groups of 5-6 kids at a
time into a room and we waited, and waited.. Finally a door opened and
Mickey stepped out. My kid sprinted across the room and hit him about
waist high, knocking him back and off balance about 4 feet into a
wall;) We didn't really almost get kicked out, but the rest is true.

Don, it isn't me making the attack posts. Have you noticed that?

I'm going on a Disney cruise later this month with the daughter, the
son-in-law, the grandkids and a youngster from Holland. Should be a lot of
fun.

Why are you running around with a chip on your shoulder, taking offence at
every imagined slight directed your way?
Seems my advice was 'spot on' and very timely. Guess I must be a good
judge of human behaviour. :-)

I wasn't referring to your words, but Don's.

When my, at the time, 4 year-old granddaughter first saw Mickey on the
ship, she ran to give him a hug too. Luckily, he (she?) was prepared or
would have been on his/her butt also!

Stop it Don. Now, back to that Princecraft. These guys all talking
about performance, who would win, you or me?? Even though you have a
slight vee, I think with the lighter hull and engine, new engine, you
would win.

This is caused by LOW VOLTAGE being supplied to the unit. One of
two things causes it. Dead battery (due to no charging from the
motor, usually)...or...resistance between the battery and sonar
(corroded connections, too small wire, loose connections).

Hummmm, back to that electrical system... Thank you, I have been
thinking about building a new wiring harness, maybe it's time.

The big space guy might be a better one to ask about a race between your
green monster and ny blue comet... but I'm betting you'd have the advantage
in a stiff breeze and chop while I'd lap you on a nice smooth lake in light
breeze conditions.
This is mostly based on the light (200 lb) aluminum hull of the Yukon.
