New D boat

[blueskyracer]

Boat is officially ready for the water....just need to attach steering wheel and figure out why motor does not die when kill switch is pulled and I am ready to test. Have new props coming, race fuel on order, blah blah blah. Should be a fun year in DSH...I would assume Darren is going to be faster then last year and Gweedo has always been quick, Todd says he is good to go, Bill Dingman has some fast equipment....should be a fun year. (assuming we can afford to go to races with gas the way it is) David

I had the same problem with my kill switch and it was the switch itself.. Pop it up and down a few time and then see if it works..Contacts inside get oxidized

what kind of kill switch are you using?? I assume you have one wire to ground on the engine and the other wire hooked into the brown wire of the Tohatsu harness.............

best kill switch to use is the Merc style (spendy, but bulletproof).............but, the inexpensive Seadog brand ones will work also..................I have a couple spare Tohatsu kill switches also ......I could give you one...............FREE!!


PS: I have only picked up .5mph since last year..............but, stil working on it! LOL

Kill switch

It's not actually the switch....I think I have something on the motor hooked up wrong.
