where are the hst guys

[venus79]

cool. cant wait to see it

[captainsteve]

I cant wait to see it uncovered either, I have been seeing it by sections and then it gets covered. How's your running? Have you had a chance to play with it much?

[venus79]

Here's some more pics

Looks good, is that a hydraulic jackplate? Looking at your waterline in the back I can see how much extra weight I have between the motor and fuel I carry, my boat sits just about to the rub rail.

The ass end of your HST really looks different without those tunnel extensions.

i got to run it once for about 10 minutes and other then it almost taking the wheel out of my hand, i loved it and it ran great. i had to come back to work early so its at a friends boat shop being finished. cant wait til i get back home to run it more and work on my setup

[venus79]

yea it does look different without them

[venus79]

mine will sit lower once i put my 30 gallon gas tank init only had a 5 gallon tank in it when i ran it. manual jackplate.

[king gill]

Is that single cable steering?Or am I just looking at it wrong?

[captainsteve]

Be careful with that single cable steering, all that torque is hell on the helm.

[venus79]

probably going to put some graphics on it in november. any ideas on what colors and what type of graphics i should put on it.

[venus79]

my other cable came in the day after i left for work. but the rigging will be finished and done right when i get back home.

[venus79]

its dual cable but my other cable hadnt come in yet. i was anxious to run it, it had to be done

[captainsteve]

I know the feeling I ran mine with the dual cable before I put the hydraulic on, and you can barely turn it left. On our old HST raceboat we used to ad bungy courde from the back end of the gearcase to the lifting eye, It helped alot with the torque with the pulley and cable steering

[venus79]

hoping mine doesnt pull so bad with both cables on. it was tough with just one
