My '87 Barefoot Nautique

[MMasariu]

Safe to say that I don't weigh what I did in high school. I would like to get as much top end as possible, without losing the low end power.

You really have to be clueless or careless to lose low end power with an engine build. You'll need to define some concrete goals for budget and speed, we can steer you in the right direction. Plenty of BFN and engine modification experience over on correctcraftfan.com, I suggest heading over there and starting a thread.

I assume you will be using the boat to bareoot?

Doesn't everyone use them to barefoot?

Despite their namesake, we are in the minority, it seems, unfortunately! "How's the wakeboarding wake" is a much more common question on these

You'll be in good hands over on ccf though... Good group of people that still use these things as intended! I have a built up '79 and a '87 (at least at the moment).
