Ditto Graeme,

I have to confess I hijacked this thread just a "little" recently, having picked up my new 555 last Thursday and got her feet wet for the 1st time on Sunday. Did one lap around Peel island in 25 knot wind late afternoon. Can't wipe the smile off my face I am that impressed with the whole rig and performance. Gave the motor a quick jab of acceleration and forgot to make a mental note of actual speed I was doing, but felt like I was flying with plenty more to go. Decided to behave with a motor only 30 mins on the hour meter.

Basic spec summary

• 555 hull
• F115AETX 4stroke Yammy
• both 27 meg and VHF radio
• Upgrade to 788x Humminbird colour sounder/GPS
• Upgrade to Dunbier drive on trailer ( an absolute must IMO and those who helped advise me)
• Pedistool seats with slide adjust on drivers' side instead of glass mount boxes - Important for offshore work to be able to stand or move with the waves, unhindered
• Extended Bimini instead of rocket launchers ( trade off with my wife)
• Bearing Buddies fitted
• Ski hooks which are not standard fitting

IMO the power to weight is excellent even with 4 POB, 70 ltrs of fuel on Sunday Performance is more than enough unless you are planning a trip to the moon in a rocket
