  "This Cobra was the standard Travis Edition but I upgraded  PHOTO
  to a 2001 Merc 225 EFI and also added a T&H hot foot  
  with adjustable mount.  The Laser II 25" is definitely the   
  wrong prop; Travis just pulled it off the original 200 EFI and   
  put it on the 225.  I get poor hole shot due to blowout; also  
  blowout when coming off throttle and then back on (5000 rpm  
  to 3000 rpm then back to 5000 rpm) because of barge rollers.  
  I am going to switch to a 25" Trophy.  I also thought I had the  
  standard 45 gallon tank but when gauge is empty I can only   
  get 30 gallons pumped in.  I know there was an optional 30  
  gallon tank offered but I'm not sure if that is what I have or if  
  the gauge is just off.  After three months of use I have tach  
  problems (in shop now...dur to possibly a bad rectifier), also  
  water pressure gauge does not work, and the carpet between  
  the seats is coming off.  Once I get the bugs worked out this   
  will be an awesome rig."

  transom. 74 mph @ 5800 rpm (gps). "I absolutely love this  
  boat. There is one option which I would honestly not get again  
  when I order a new one. The "in floor cooler" is a great idea  
  and yes, it is out of the way, but it is a pain to get to unless you  
  are sitting down, impossible to reach from outside the boat. I  
  would rather have the cooler in one of the rear compartments.  
  The between the seat cooler was not an option because of the   
  46 gallon tank I got. Don't know if they changed this or not. DH

  30 gallons of fuel, 5850 rpms. "Have settled on propshaft height  PHOTO
  Updated 12/26 of 4 inches below the pad.  Generally GPS at 66-68 with full   
  2 man load, have see 69 with light 2 man load and cold weather  
  at 5900 rpm. Will experiment some more in Spring, and also  
  may have Rich Boger tweak the prop. If anyone has any good  
  advice on setup for this boat, drop me an e-mail.  
  So far it seems like lower motor height creates better  
  lift and higher speeds.  Boat handles and turns great. I will keep  
  you updated. By the way, the built-in blacklights are awesome  
  if you nightfish much! "
