No Wedge - No Grate still good speeds
Had really nice conditions on the river this morning. Started out at 72 degrees air temp and 60 degree water temp, finished uo with 80 and 80. Different parts of the river and bay had dif temps.
I recently removed the R&D intake grate and the R&D wedge, just to test, was sucking up to much eel grass from the 4th of July outing.
Ski ran 69.0 at 8050 RPM`s. on flat waters, 4 bars of fuel remaining.
Last speeds with the grate and wedge in the chop were 69.1, so I have to say I`m pretty happy with the results...PR...

Pr What grate did you replace it with? The wedge being removed is no surprise.

Did you not like or were there some gains?
Thanks

All in all I was never going for the most top end, I just wanted a more reliable, better handling, little quicker good running ski, but this whole scenario has proven more wrenching and less riding so far, all due to the failing rebuild of the first SC incident...PR...
