My New Boat: Marshall 470 + Mercury ELPTO 90

[Bou]

Hi everybody,

We've just finished our project.

A Marshall 470 rib with a Mercury Elpto 90hp.

The console we've build it our own, with help of Danny who is also active on this forum and some of you have seen him on the Ribex last year.

Today we took here out for a test run and see runs like hell! .

There is now a 17P Aluminium prop on it, put that's seems to small.
I think we need a 19 or 21 Pitch Rvs prop, with will be tested soon.

The boat is a little overpowerd and that's also here new name: Overpowerd.

Very nice indeed. I've seen more pictures of the building and it was great to see so much enthousiasm in this project.
Today the boat could go flat out on such calm water. But be careful with "Overpowered" in choppy waters and at sea.
