Thanks guys, I prechecked everything. I even filled the hull with water to check for any possible leaks. (Since I had one last year). And good news there was none! Love the power steering out of the water(wheel turns as smooth as butter), can't wait to use it while on plane!

Hope to have more good news tomorrow!

Great time on Sherman reservoir this morning. Gotta say I love having power steering! I now have more control over phoenix rising than I ever have. She now turns on a dime. And the 140 has plenty of power to spare. Right now around half throttle I am running 3500 rpm with my 21p laser II, I think after break in is done I will be trying a 23 or 25p prop. I will post videos later Travis and Crystal got some good ones.

I'm glad everything's working good for you now! I'm sure it's a good feeling to get it out on the water now. Your pictures on FB showed a pretty big smile on your face!
