    [QUOTE=Instigator

    In my younger days I called that "GARYITIST". Brain shrinks as balls swell [/QUOTE]

    Guy who instructed at an autocross called it testicular occlusion. Your balls got so big you couldn't see what you were doing.

    "Once I bought my first Hydrostream boating changed forever for me."

    Per my hero Instigator:

    "I try not to let common sense interfere w/my boat buying decisions."

    I often think of what you guys lived through, back in the day.
    Don't think I'd have made it

    Pat, A friend used to tell me that if I started with nine lives, I'm on my last one.

    I heard there was a guy in NEW JERSEY that had an 19' ACTION with twin 2.4's...I bought the gearcases and props that came off that boat from a guy in HOMOSASSA SPRINGS, think he went to jail and they parted out his boat, something like that...been awhile...shure looks COOL though

    Norris had an idea for a long time to mount twin 1500XS engines on a Vector. I think that would look really cool!
    On the Action, was the transom modified at all? I didn't think the Action's transom was wide enough to accommodate two 2.4s. It must have been a very tight squeeze.
