Bobs nose cone on omc 3cyl

[Crazyvixen]

I needed the low water pickup. Even with it i still went thru a waterpump every event i raced at due to the boat was always out of the water. Dont think it slowed me down at all.

[FORBESAUTO]

Yep, if nothin but the skeg in tha water it ain’t gonna slow ya down and can actually aid in lift with bullet runnin on surface

[Crazyvixen]

True that. I would run it in 1000ft drags. Didnt think 76mph was too bad for a 11.5ft boat in that short of a run.

[Forkin' Crazy]

At 76mph you don't need a cone. Might slow you down.

How many three cylinders have you had that ran 76mph? Asking for a friend.

[CUDA]

My 15 ft MFG Tri-Hull had a 75 Stinger 1976, I think it did 125mph

Most boats that run 76MPH don't need a cone, FACT, with your set up I understand you need water.

Paul, you still have the crossflow on the Allison.

[Crazyvixen]

I have a hydrostream vixen with a v4 crossflow yes.

This one is going on a contender. I’ve pushed the Mercury 1000 off for now even though I’m still rebuilding it..slowly..Dave if you read this I didn’t sell it lol

Yes I was reading it.... and I think the 3 cly is a good choice as it has good power.... the old 1000 is a classic.... let it rest till ya need it. Bobs cones are cool looking and add 50 mph. Over that 76 MPH glass speed ceiling...... Really. What is better is a Nitro case.....smaller frontal area. Best thing you can do is Try the boat out and see if you like it..... Bounce instead of chine walk....

Anybody ever put one on? Looks like a good amount of grinding. Guess I’ll find out tomorrow Attachment 428162

Got a Bob's on my 3.4, love it dearly

Only 50...man I thought it would add a solid 60..if it goes down the river and makes it to the sandbar I’ll be happy, if not you can pay the shipping and make a spot for it lol

Sure I will too.. it will look cool if nothing else

Looks good, and will increase your top end roughly by 5 mph depending on your setup,motor Height, and setback,not to mention surface props

Mannnnnn, you ain't going to put a little refrigerator on the back of that BLACK boat?? Any progress on your Contender????

That fridge is slow goings..Figured I’d just replace everything on it so it’s going to be my slow project.
I have sanded it down and I’m about to rebuild the dash..between all my other projects and what I call a job everything is slowwww

[Trilogy1]

Got it tacked on anyway
