    Performance issues

    thanks gang. BTW the FB part in the rear is WOOD. not FG. When replacing the speakers I found this. Also my dealer is paying a local guy to lower the engine. Its got one more hole to go. he says its not getting out of the water enough. that one hole lower will lower it like 1/2 inch. I have had...

    Performance issues

    Hey guys, here is my issue. I have a new GSRFB with a F300. Max speed is 40.5 mph at just barely above 6k rpm and pretty much just over 50% trim. This is regardless of any amount of fuel or people. My prop is SWS 15- 15 3/4 (think its 15 3/4) 2013 GSR 2550 with a F250 on it. The old boat is the...

    Great Pics! Looks like that works. Where i go @ TableRock Lake SW Mo they have loose rocks. we have to use only specific areas that have the smallest amount. Typicaly the wife jumps off before we beach and clears the larger ones. Then lays the mats out. No real sand on my lake :-(

    Mine are like 4'x4' with a bunch of holes in it. The holes help it sink. Your full mat would be a lot heavier because its solid. My Wife can pick ours up whole.  I will try to get pics when i go to the lake second week of Sept and report back... Boat Safely!

    Ok, so you used a different mat than i did. I used the ones that are from Lowes and about same cost but have a lot of holes in them, My only concern with what you have is the width. I use all of mine especially on the 32" center toon... Let us know how this works out for you and if possible...
