i got a 135 v6 mercury 2001 for 2500 bucks on payments,(done) i am just using a teleflex universal cable system,(cant afford power steering right now) this boat did 35 mph with a 115 johnson v4 , with 3/4 comp. on one cylinder. now with new motor and new bottom paint and a SS prop i think 50 mph is gonna be no prob. wake boarding anyone? my prediction is you guys will be riding in it before end of summer.(3 weeks till its finished)
