    From previous experience, I suggest that you adjust the trailer position so that the rear roller is never out behind the boat for mice to climb on to then go through the drain port hole. Beyond that, I will say that you need to be very mindful of weather conditions, most notably, wind. Once that thing gets up out of the water, they often go over faster than than the driver can find the throttle. It would be smart to use a head up, face up full life jacket. When you get tossed out at high speed, you will get beat up and shock sets in very fast.
    I was the crash crew director for an APBA Hydroplane regatta for over 20 years and I have seen more boat flips than either of us can count. I'm taking these few minutes to try to save your life.

      Hitting the water at 100 is not much different than hitting the ground at 100, except you cannot breathe if you end up face down in the water.
      The faster and higher you fly, the more likely your boat will turn into an airplane. Not a matter of if but a matter of when.

    I suggest a helmet as your contact patch with the water is so minimal and there is a lot of air under the hull. I lost a good friend in a flip at 105mph in a California Drag boat with Chevy 454 blown out to 1,000hp. Be fast, but be safe.

    One point in time, I worked for Hydrostream. Building the decks. You will find the keel is flat, but the boat is a "V" bottom. This was done for racing purposes. You're right on learning to balance yourself in the boat, trimming is also a big deal with these boats. From what I can tell, you have done a good job learning to get the best preformance out of your Vector (16 foot) If you are able to find a Viking (17 foot) or a Vegas (20 foot), you will find better preforming Hydrostream boats. The 20 foot hull is rated as No. 1 hull by many boat magazines. You might want to play with some weights in the bow area, this will also give you better control. Enjoy the ride.

      @314899 3 роки тому +4

      @@thebrowncompound Yes, it's a Vector. Look at the keel in the rear. Vector will be slightly concaved upwards in the center of the keel. The Viking will be flat across the rear of the keel. Years back, ( the 70's) the Viking held the speed record in the 17 foot "V" bottom class. Hydrostream was designed for speed. Many things were done to break the water tension on Hydrostreams. You will find the strakes get narrower toward the rear of the boat. This design was to bring air to the bottom of the boat, to break it free of the water vacuum beneath the boat. You will see the keel doesn't come all the way to the transom, this design was to pull the water off the transom, again to break the water vacuum of the rear of the boat. Happy to see you enjoy the ride.

      @@thenarrator869 The YT hull was under development when I exited Hydrostream. The purpose of the YT was to give the boat more stability at high speeds. it's a long story how the YT came to be a creation of Howard Pipkorn. HISTORY: There was a tunnel boat race in Minneapolis MN years back. The new 8 cylinder Evinrude racing engine came out that year. One of the boats wrecked, lost it's Evinrude engine in the water. Howard Pipkorn found the engine weeks after the wreck. Told the racers he would trade the engine for the wrecked tunnel boat. This tunnel boat became the blueprint for the YT hull, as Howard would marry the design of the tunnel boat to his "V" hull.

    Back in 85 I had a STV mod vp that I bought from Rourke Summerford in Texas. When it would walk from chine to chine he suggested I loosen my grip on steering wheel. it went away. He mentioned the hull needed very little input from my hands going straight. More important was the trim button and the throttle. The hydro streams were a bit sketchy when they first came out. I bought a new one with the most powerful outboard merc had at the time. A 175hp black max. I also had a 21 challenger built on Long Island that I would swap the 175 on to. That hull had one of the fastest and smoothest rough water rides for that era. Hydro and challenger had to be 1975ish on barnegat bay in jersey. Now I sail!!

    That lower unit looks like it was drug down the highway for a bit? I run a Sportsman lower on my Bravo 1 drive they can sure take the HP well.

    This is my first video from your channel I will most likely become a pretty big fan of the channel. I personally have an 81 Hydro Stream Vagas with a later 80s mercury 175 2.4L. Hopefully I'll be able to learn a couple tricks to use for myself. Loved the video🤙

    That hydrostream looked like it was only running on the back 6 inches of pad. Chine walk at 100 mph must be terrifying. The green boat, on the other hand, looked stable as a rock.

    Hello again !
    In retrospect, I noticed:
    The propeller that you have installed lets out the exhaust gases in front of the propeller.
    That promotes cavitation extremely!
    Back then with my Merc. I have the Merc. rebuilt that the exhaust gases come out above the water with the cooling water.
    That gives a more stable boost!
    Greetings Thilo Schieschke.

      Exhaust comes out the huge exhaust hole

    • @thiloschieschke9766
      @thiloschieschke9766 2 роки тому

      @@thebrowncompound Exactly. The exhaust gases come out of where the propeller sucks in water! And presses the water with the exhaust gases out of the back. What goes through in gas, you lose in thrust Gas can be compressed Water not And the cavitation effect increases with the propeller You understand Greetings Thilo.

    • @thebrowncompound
      @thebrowncompound  2 роки тому +2

      The exhaust is a hole that I can fit two hands in and is out of water when on plain. And lower picks water up on the nose. The prop doesn’t suck in any water Idk how much more simple I can make it
