Don't worry Bash,

He's still tire kicking :eek: :eek: ;)

The only thing on his transome at this time is a field of dreams:p

[P man]

The Fralick's are a family from here in Toronto. They have been designing and selling plans for all types of small racing hydros. One day Id love to build a D Stock or something... Imagine spanking some of the bigger boats up at the cottage in one of these!!!

all of your girlfriends that no one has met? Too bad I didnt have the Purple & Teal Voodoo, we could race, and get ll the lake trash!

Check out that pic, its classic, with the hot dog & sausage pontoon boat in the background. Screams straight!

Oh yeah, thanks for blowing up my sled!

[P man]

lol I still stand by what I said... There is only ONE thing in this world that is pink and awsome... and it sure as hell aint that voodoo

ps I sure as hell hope your kidding about the sled!
I dont want to have to trade you my delta as payment;)

[Blizz]

That motor probably won't plane your Hawk and it's only got about a 9 1/2'' mid on it. They're is a guy up here in Canada building these now.

[mragu]

and yout I.Q !

Who's IQ is 44 Gleason? What the f___ is a yout? deek!:D

[mragu]

That 44 is real nice....:cool:

Trikki, very intuitive:D It really does look like a Progression

Gene, I don't like to chew my cabbage twice. Now POWER UP! The Hawk:D bow is as pointy as a knife

[mragu]

Blizz, does the 44xs only come with a 9.5 mid. I didn't get a chance to call fralick boats today. If the 44 does not come with a 15" does the 25xs? thanks Mike

[SUPERBASH]

Hang a 25" on it 'Ragu. After all...it is a "mini-progression"!http://img97.imageshack.us/img97/2680/bash4gp.gif (http://imageshack.us)

[FX10 Superboats]

Bash !! Order a Supervader and spank the Hawk. I''ll build ya a real light one. ;)

[viper15]

Ragu, I have a mini hawk for my son. I have a 55 evinrude for it . I hope to have it for the summer.

[mragu]

I sold my 48hp johnson by accident, agreed to sell b4 i got the hawk. you don't think that motor will be too heavy? was your hawk made in patchogue?

[Blizz]

Both the xs motors only come with the shorty mid but they stock 25hp and classic 45 and 50 powerheads. Plus that lower has 1:1 gears in it i believe. Crankbearing on this site is making them last i heard he's making eveything new except l/u casing but he's goon have them soon.

Here's alink to 44xs specs

[mragu]

so I will be able to get with a 15" shaft? what kind of pricing are they going to be?

[Blizz]

Just buy a used 50 merc shortshaft there are millions around you can probably get one for less than 500

[Blizz]

Here's a link for a 25ss before xs

[mragu]

Blizz, There are a bunch around but i'm concerned about the total weight with my fat ass in the boat:D

[Blizz]

Not sure on weight diff between the two but i know it still takes two to muscle it around. You could also try a 2 cyl slomc or a 35/40 2cyl merc

[mragu]

I emailed the guy with the 25ss. we'll see. i open to a few different options

[jerry]

a 25 hp wont get your fat ass out of the canal !

[ccmaker]

Not sure of your boat specs,but Charlie M might have what you need...

If the 50 doesn't sink you.......it's got t/t,and the bigger carbs.Talk to Fast Fred about Mods.Have one of his,and after 2 seasons I'm very happy:D . Greg

[SUPERBASH]

Dont even take that thing out of the canal. Bash is gonna swamp your ass!http://img147.imageshack.us/img147/930/bash3kd.gif (http://imageshack.us)

[mragu]

Bash, When I read this post my 1st thought was Caddyshack, I'm Rodney and your Ted Knight. I drop my anchor of my Searay through that tie barred thing of yours and watch it sink. Then you can change your name to SUPER"got"Bashed. As far as you swamping my Hawk "ya can't hit what you can't catch"! Yeah, thats WTF I said to Bash

[SUPERBASH]

Ha HA ! Now Bash is gonna swamp you with the jetski too !!!http://img147.imageshack.us/img147/930/bash3kd.gif (http://imageshack.us)

[viper15]

Ragu , Mine was buillt in patchogue. I had to go upstate to larchmount to get it though. I live 10 minutes from the guy who builds them I have seen them with 40s and the go good. I saw someone with a 50 and never saw it go. The weight difference between the 40 and 50 is only a few pounds. If extra pounds are ok fro Jerry its Ok for me. My Boat need some help. As soon as i finish my boat then I will get to the mini. I'm looking for 15inch mid for my fifty. If not its getting a jack plate.

[mragu]

Viper, mine came from Patchougue by way of OHio thanks to Gordie Miller. I'm locked up right now doing my 15'cc. want to finish so I can start on Hawk.

[SUPERBASH]

Jerry & Bash will be by next weekend to help you.........................................plant flowers in the Hawk.http://img147.imageshack.us/img147/930/bash3kd.gif (http://imageshack.us)

[Tantrum]

Who has set up a Cougar Cub?
Im looking for power for one and could use some thoughts on what kind of power it can handle.
Any ideas on where to find info would be appreciated.

[SUPAJAY]

Can you post some pictures of the hawk?
Ive never seen the inside of one, pics of the transom and back would be great.

[viper15]

Bash: PLANT FLOWERS is that what you old guys do in the winter when the boats are out. I can see Jerry with a green thumb but Bash!

Yours had a longer journey than mine. I think I'm going to pull the deck and get rid of the hump from the bulkhead. I saw a boat in the ac boat show. it was a streched mini hawk 13ft. No bulkhheads, just a solid floor front to rear. I have given it some thought also. It looked much neater inside.

Jay when I can climb over my debri i'll take pics for you. Did you ever get the ecu's you wanted?

[mragu]

viper, i'm pullin' the deck also. gonna use devinacyl to strenthen deck and hull sides.

[Trikki1010]

LARCHMONT = UPSTATE:confused:

What happens when you leave Westchester or the Island, you fall off the planet :eek: :D ;)

Trust me, we let you guys go home, as Herb, Helmut and Mikey:p

Dont forget the tie bars !!!http://img504.imageshack.us/img504/3227/bash6dd.gif (http://imageshack.us)

[viper15]

Ragu, when you pull the deck just take cardboard rolls from wrapping paper. cut them in half lay them on the inside of the deck and glass over them. the half moon fiberglass shape will stiffen the deck and not add much weight. if your core the deck and sides the boat will gain allot of weight. you can do that to the hull sides as well. I 'm doing that to mine. I know the deck is thin as sh-t and I want my kids to be able to stand on it. Do you work in the boat business. If not let me know I can get the materials at cost from a distributer in Deerpark.

[SUPAJAY]

Viper15, I think im going to have mine reprogrammed.

[viper15]

Supa, do you have to give them specs and parimeters or can you just tell them i want them made into 250's. Do you have a 2 butterfly intake or 4. if you want I did allot of research on these and if you want, I'll Give you some help. I need a 300 fuel and I was going to have my 250 reprogrammed also.

[mragu]

Viper, I just work on boats for fun, not a living. The time it takes me to do things on boats i would starve. Its funny you said that i could use 1/2 moon cardboard and glass over. I'm a plumber and i was thinking of 1/2 mooning pvc pipe. the deck on mine is real weak and like you i want to remove that bulkhead that makes the deck bow. if cardboard would make the deck rigid i will definatley use pvc mooned instead of divincyl for cost and weight. if you want to use pvc also, I will cut you pieces. i would assume the strips of pvc should run bow to stern and not port to starboard? I will definatley take you up on the offer for materials. do you live in massapequa also?

[viper15]

I live in farmingville. But I grew up in Copiague, I'm in copiague all the time. You do not need pvc. all you need the cardboard for is to hold shape to the glass until it hardens. The curved fiberglass is the support. They will run bow to stern. I can help you and show you what to do. I'll Pm you my phone #.
