6 hours would cost me best part of £400 in fuel and my boat only carry's about 1/4 of that. I can maybe do 2 hours at best if I sit and bob once in a while and don't drive at WOT all the time.

Hey Gav

Found your post in the archives and wondered if you still have the boat? We (The Haines Group) are still going strong in Australia and I personally own a 1986 Signature 1700s. 2 years ago we made a special 1900s out of carbon fibre and put a Suzuki DF250SS on it complete with jacking plate. It was awesome.

Anyhow just thought I would say Gday and thanks for owning a Signature.

I still have my seaquel built one. Its awesom (when I use it!) I'm running a merc offshore with a 15" mid. Tried a jack plate on it once and found it to be slow and poor handling so I took off the jack plate and noticed a massive difference!
What props are you running?
