    2002-2004, GT-40 196 Baselines and StarGazer?

    I am trying to get a feel for other skiers baselines at 36mph for the same boat setup, 2002-2004 hull, gt-40 196.

    My 36mph baseline is like 3705ish which just seems really hot. I am running an Acme 4 blade 422 prop, shell gas and VR-1 40w oil in 75-85 degree water.

    Anyone know or mind looking at their 36mph baseline?

    Also, was wondering if any skiers have installed the StarGazer latest version in their boats and are skiing it successfully?

    Scoke, I've got mine written down at the house for my multiple module swaps.

    Off the top of my head, I think I'm at 3,545 for 36 mph. Going to be a different hull, but with GT-40 1.23:1 and Acme 422.

    Yes, that baseline sounds hot for 36 mph. My old MC would do 36 at 3,475.

    As for SG, we're trying to get this "failure to save" issue nailed down. I'm confident we will, but to answer the question, I haven't been out on the water with it yet.
