Heath,

If you have any pics of your boat sitting in the water I would really appreciate if you could post them so I can see how they float.

I need XLong legs, which in the ETEC weigh 148kg from memory.

I don't like the idea of putting that much weight aft.

Regards

Darren

my father in law just put new 70hp Tohatsu's xlong on his 5.2 it has a top speed of around 33-35 knots and at 25-30 knots it uses 1.9ltr per nautical mile both motors its got 240ltr in two fuel tanks 120 each.

Hey Orrsum,

Nice rig. Is that on the Gold Coast?

Always wonder whether simple cheap two strokes are the go, but wonder about resale value.
