    One final post.  I got this on the lake this past weekend for about an hour and it ran great.  It stayed cool the whole time and started 1st pull.  I kept varying the throttle for break in but did try a full speed run at the end of the hour and it Pushed my 12 foot 1962 StarCraft Super Duty along at about 13 MPH with me and my son, this boat is heavy and hard to plane off so I’m very happy with that.
