Brad thanks your awesome, all in we are at $950... we are gonna have to take both trucks to Sams tomorrow. They feed 150-170 families a week and been getting most stuff from churches, but churches shut down so that’s fallen off, just lucky with our timing but it couldn’t be better!!!!!

[@johnkoons7163]

Thanks Ken, Finally figured out how I could get my Jon boat to go 80 mph.

Interesting Ken. Please keep em coming.

A little note about props with a ding: NEVER file them with a file to "clean it up to run until you have time to get it repaired." Normal files that we have access to are carbon steel. Filing your high-dollar stainless prop with a carbon steel file contaminates the metal, and THAT makes it a real pain for the prop repair shop to provide the best repair. If they do it right, they have to take the time to remove the contamination you introduced. I've been told time and again by repair shops to just leave it alone and let them do it.

GREAT INFO, never knew that!

[@bulletbassin9091]

Great video, I got a kick at the ending. Balancing left to right made a big difference in how my boat handles.

[@KenSmithFishing]

I believe it, about to do some testing myself!

[@thatarkguy]

super thorough. great video. thanks for doing this. i always wanted to figure this out was too lazy haha

[@bennettbellina764]

That’s a fast ranger right there, I never thought they could hit 80😂

[@delylewoods1682]

Thanks Ken for another nice video, funny thing is I have been looking at way to get a better hole shot out of my little Nitro. After doing some research, I'm pretty confident that I'm running the wrong pitch prop. But I'm also going to look at moving some weight around.

[@chadellett4696]

I added solar panel and electric motors and it made sense to have the two AGM batterys at the front of the boat for balancing and I think its better on ruff seas 🌊

[@KenSmithFishing]

what do they charge?

[@chadellett4696]

@@KenSmithFishing the solar charges the 24volts battery that runs the electric motors

I mistakenly left the graph on in my triton 196 with a 200 opti when going home and caught it the next day when cleaning. 85 babeeee.

[@rickybourque7182]

Good stuff Ken!

[@vhf2582]

Good useful information. Thanks.

[@jabojr5171]

That wasn't funny, I was looking for that great, wonderful, secret answer to going far faster than I should. lol Great job, you had me.

[@bigc8018]

Good vid, Ken. Thanks.

[@johnny_jgs2435]

Nice video thanks 👍

[@KenSmithFishing]

thanks Johnny!

[@TOBYLEXUS711]

Come fish Caddo lake with me Wednesday morning!

[@av8214]

Great video. I’m shocked a Ranger could get over 70 like that

[@coreypowell7194]

Ive got talons on my boat and it doesn't like any extra weight on the back at all

[@KenSmithFishing]

Any weight slows, but I bet we mount those Talons on the front and...😁

[@txman201]

Are you sure you had the trim optimized when you made that speed run? The boat seemed to be sitting a bit flat. Do you think you could get a little more out of it?

[@KenSmithFishing]

Maybe with better water, got pretty bouncy

[@txman201]

@@KenSmithFishing I must apologize for not being clear in my comment. I was referring to the boat looking like it was sitting a little flat when you got it up to 80 mph. I was thinking you might sqeeze a little more out of that barge with more trim. 🤓

[@tracynewman5246]

Haha good vid👍

[@atabor1000]

Great video! Too funny!

[@lenclark6099]

HA, HA, HA !!! Very Funny on the 80 MPH speed!

[@2141duckhunter]

Another great video Ken, keep it up. I also follow Jimmy Houston and today’s bible verse was - Matthew 25:45 -He will reply, 'Truly I tell you, whatever you did not do for one of the least of these, you did not do for me.' Great reminder to help people in need and my contribution will be sent shortly to your PayPal account. Thank you for taking the lead and providing help where it’s needed. Have a great day!

[@reggiesmith8550]

You're crazy but I love your videos

[@bluesinsation]

The real secret to running 80 mph: Put 250hp cowling decals on a 300 hp.

[@KenSmithFishing]

Don’t think that would get my 521 there!

[@fishinfool7545]

🤣🤣🤣good one!!!🎣🎣🎣

[@ShaneKA5GSS]

Check your PayPal. Said it was going to “James Smith?”

[@KenSmithFishing]

It was, proper name, thanks!!

[@SgtCude59]

just asking why so fast >

[@KenSmithFishing]

?

[@dansherwood1043]

Just asking, why not? Faster, you fool you fool....yee haw!

[@williamriley2528]

But you still want the boat out of the water & just running on the rear pad...

[@KenSmithFishing]

William absolutely!

[@TOBYLEXUS711]

LMAO I knew it!!!

[@clarkholton461]

SKEETER hater?

[@KenSmithFishing]

Never, ran a ZX 250 for years, loved how that boat fished!

[@BeyondTheBoundsOutdoors]
