            Ficht 5.5" CMC jackplate. Boat is Platinum Red, Black Apple,   
  Cherry Apple with a White hull.   
    Updated 9/25/02.... "Since adding the jackplate and a Cobra "Edge" hydrofoil, this   
  ride has really woke up.  Holeshot is awesome, even with 2   
  people and full livewell.  Top speed has improved from 52 to a   
  tick under 55 mph.  Need to have prop reworked to a 21 to   
  get the rpms down some, and may even break the 55 mph   
  barrier.  Not too shabby for a 1200 lb boat with a 115.   
  Will be selling this rig late in 2002 to buy a bigger faster Toon.  
  Looking at a TR20, 21 or maybe even a 200 XP."
