Picked this up down in California a couple of weeks ago. Finally got her tuned up and going last night. Gonna enjoy the rest of the summer! Its a 2002 Eagle 19' Step tech with a ZZ4 350 in it. All set up to race FX class.

Took the wrong channel and ended up going through some pretty skinny water. The one spot where I let off the gas is only about 3 inches deep.

Cool! Ive asked around quite a bit about why more guys dont set something like this up for river boats. They have the two stroke 240hp mercury sport jets in light little boats for running real skinny water. Why not drop an RX1 into something like that with some boost. You could probably set up a super efficient water to air intercooler so you could probably see some decent hp on pump fuel. That woud be a fun little boat.

Pretty cool . But when you get to the scary shallow stuff you're not supposed to let up , you're supposed to PIN IT !!!

Yeah, I just let off for a second where I touched so I wouldnt suck up and rocks and eff up my pump.
