Petrov,

What is a pad?

Maybe i use the wrong word in English but this is what i mean.
This is the bottom back of a Seaharrier Max

Petrov,

Sorry to bother you but your last picture, is one of a Seaharrier max? Because I don’t see that same V at the back op mine. The back bottom is much flatter.

Paul

No probs at all.
The pad is between the white line and goes forward.
I also attach one more pic of the boat, pic is taken straight from behind and there you can se that it looks exactly same as yours.

WOW!

This one is a bit better.

The first pic was ok, do you se the white line that i did on the pic, that`s the beam of pad and it goes forward.

Petrov, ya pic's a bit confusing. At first sight, it looks as though the pad is actually a deep V at the transom rather than a pad travelling forward.

Petrov · 01 June 2005, 14:33

The first pic lies a little bit, i will se if i can find another pic.

Petrov · 01 June 2005, 14:55

Oki, i try another shot, i am not the best in Illustrator but i made a try.
Hope this gives you more an idea of what i mean.

PS. The angle of the pad on the pic from the side is not exact.

Is it correct that the pad on the Seaharrier should be flat and on the Lynx more a V?

Petrov · 01 June 2005, 20:04

The pad is a little bit rounded on the Lynx and the Seaharrier Max is flat.

That's my kind or RIB!

Due to the very bad weather this weekend not a lot of Ribbers showed up for the trip. Originally 20 Ribs were participating, but we left with only 6. The 2 X 300 HP man (Vermoten ore something like that) did not show up...

Petrov, did you know that the current owner of the Narcotic has changed the engine. 350 HP was a little underpowered for him. So now he has 496 HP on that SH Max.

Paul

It`s not the same owner on that Seaharrier Max (Narcotic) the guy that bought it new sold it a year ago, dont know the new owner, i have been driven that Seaharrier Maxbe and know with 496hp it must be a really fast.

Seaharrier · 06 June 2005, 13:04

It changed owner in August last year i think. With that new engine the boat is too heavy on the back. He only wins 7 kn (56 kn) and has a bad balanced rib

. But the sounds it makes is very very impressive!!

Heard that, they have duoprop with twin 30 pitch wich is to small and Mercruiser doesnt make any bigger.
They over rev the engine pretty fast.
