    Fortunately, I happened to notice the crack on the bracket...

    61 MPH?

    JMO: What prop are you running to get 61mph?

    Does the K&N filter actually give you more power than the stock flame arrestor? I wouldn't think the flame arrestor is very restrictive. Plus, it's a...

    boat loading

    I've experienced the problem mostly when running in the 30-45mph range and without ballast, but loaded with 6-8 people. Those are the two occasions when the hull flex was enough for the center...

    Windshield

    I too have this problem with my 1999 Moomba Outback. In anything other than glass water I have to keep my windshield open, because waves cause my hull to flex so much that the center window frame...

    Leaks continued

    It turned out the leak was from the drive shaft. I tightened it up and the leak stopped. Unfortunately, it worked itself loose within about 6 hours of riding. I'll try to make it even tighter next...

    Matt,
