Hey Jim. I will do. I'll start a thread and post the pics. I'll also post the prop info as well. The speed is low 50's; smooth but unstable so adding trim pads.
Thanks
John

Re: Temptation 2500, Twin 225-HP FOURSTROKE VERADO
Re delay in replying: I got a bit maxed-out and frustrated with the lack of Mercury support on Smith Lake to initialize engines. All done and dusted now. Down to [cabin] lights, trim tabs to help hull mangement, and docking lights. The seat re-design was a big hit and gives me room for a lot more re...

Re: Temptation 2500, Twin 225-HP FOURSTROKE VERADO
Guys need a little help. The engines are rigged and boat 95-percent complete. Suggest the propellers for the two VERADO 225-HP engines. I've used a few of the calculators. I have also seen posts that recommend a 21 pitch. [Should I use a 21-pitch] as opposed to [Deleted tabular data that was a mess....

Re: Gel Coat Stains Keep Coming Back
