Some pics of it on the water, We have picked up yet more speed from the boat which is being used for testing while not racing, (He doesn't boat at that speed with passengers on board)

The boat is back in race mode in preparation for the next round. We have changed the intake manifold to the larger one as it makes allot more torque. We have been testing with different ways to get cold air to the filter and have managed to drop the intake air temp from mid 30s (on a 20deg day) down to 20 deg which dropped exhaust temps by 70deg F making more power (100rpm) and more speed
The motor is used for racing and family boating,
