I would skip the Boyesen and go for Chris Carson reeds.

Why do you prefer Chris Carson reeds over Boyesen? I like the idea of their rubber coated blocks.

Great performing, long lasting reeds. I ran charters for years, lot of hrs on my engines. I have them in my opti's with rubber cages, and my 2.5 EFI on my Hydrostream. Have 6 sets, some over 5 yrs old. No failures. That says a lot about their quality. Plus, Chris is a real good guy IMO.

Ain't it great to have papa TRUMP back at the helm?
