One we finally move and get set up.

I still wanna put my vintage Merc 800 on a little 12-13 ft hotboat and make
a little critter that goes real fast, at least 23 pitch at 5500 kinda fast.

The boats name is picked: "Ski Biscuit"

If I were you, I'd register it in Australia so some off-her-rocker wench
doesn't do the same and sue you for fifty cents.

Cute name.

Where are you planning to run this little suicide boat?

We're looking at lakefront property in S.C. - wife is in charge of house
hunting. So far we got an offer on this place within 10k of target. I feel
spring "selling season" outta do the trick (hopefully).

Once I get my own dock, I plan to have the PM-II, a newer party barge
powered by my 1958 Mark 58 (yet to be named) , and "Ski Biscuit" which will
be a Hydrostream VooDoo powered by my '61 Merc 800. The VooDoo was rated for
50hp, but a lot of people are putting that Yamaha 70hp (propshaft rated) on
them. My Merc 800 prolly makes about 70 at the prop. So long as I don't
over-trim it, I stand a good chance of not blowing it over.

The PM-2 will just break 50 if I *ever* get around to hopping up it's big
inline.
I want "Ski Biscuit" to go 60 / 65. EG
