My boat has the factory tank holders with the fiberglass bottom. These are resined to the bottom of the boat and one of them is broken. I haven't been able to find another one or two to replace them when I have the floor done. I would like to see or hear form you on other ways to mount the tanks. or where I can find another set of these mounts.

I have never ran the boat on the trailer, except for a few seconds at a time to check things. It has a water hose hookup that comes off the back of the pump, and then goes to a "T" fitting that brings water to both sides of the motor. I have no idea how much hose pressure to use or if I should start the motor and then turn on the hose or turn the hose on first. This is a wet log system btw, and the cam is a Comp cams marine 226int/236exh @ .050 with a lobe separation of 112.

The reason im worried about backing it down the launch ramp and starting it up in 2-3 feet of water, is since i have to immediately bring the idle to around 2K rpms, (for the new cam) for around 20 mins, and I don't want to suck a bunch of shore/ramp debris into my brand new pump...

Any tips/insight is much appreciated, thanks! ]]> Jet Boats Bonzen http://www.performanceboats.com/jet-boats/156585-breaking-motor-cam-hook-up-hose-ramp.html <![CDATA[[Wanted] Chrome rim with hubcap]]> http://www.performanceboats.com/trailers-trailer-parts/156577-chrome-rim-hubcap.html Wed, 19 Jun 2013 20:51:44 GMT Hi, I am looking for 1 more of the rims with hubcap as in the picture below as a spare.

I bought it out of Portland, OR, in the 80’s and they retired the hull as it was getting too heavy for racing. If I remember correctly, it won record holder at 123 mph.

It now has a 454 balanced 8:1 sport engine, over-V drive and reverse gear.

It is a project with most all the parts there except a 2 speed power glide transmission. It includes the Wet Exhaust System and several gauges & parts.

It is designed to just be a nice boat that will get a lot of looks as it is very wild looking—mass amounts of steam at will.

It is now stored at our shops in California City. If interested you are welcome to come look at it. It will be sad to let it go, but someone needs to finish it and enjoy the fun.

The engine is set up for regular fuel. I probably have close to about $15,000 invested in it, thus I am firm on the price. Cash Only asking $9,500. It has a shop cradle, no trailer.

I would sure like to see it in the water when it is finished.

I can be called with further questions at 760-284-2905.

Im Mike. I just recently purchased a 75' Eliminator Bubbledeck as a project to spend my free time on and I just had a few questions.

1) This boat came with a Drake pump.....after a lot of consideration I have decided to replace it and picked up a rebuilt Berkeley JG pump. Since I will be replacing the intake I was considering doing a set back (clean out outside the hull) ride plate, and shoe. Is this a good idea?
(I am a machinist so I would most likely modify the intake myself and purchase a shoe)

2) This hull has a set of fins in the center of the hull like a v drive...they are rusted really bad and I can make a new set but are they needed?

Thanks In Advance Greg!

Columbia's Cons: Ivy League social work program run by team of former prisoners | Fox News




EXCLUSIVE: In the hallowed halls of Columbia University, a nest of ex-cons — who have served time for murder, attempted murder, robbery and assault — hold court on their unique brand of social justice for admiring students enrolled in the school's social work program, a FoxNews.com investigation has found.

The ex-cons work for or with the Criminal Justice Initiative (CJI), co-founded in 2009 by former Weather Underground operative and Columbia adjunct professor Kathy Boudin, who pleaded guilty to felony murder for her role in an infamous 1981 armed robbery that left two police officers and a security guard dead. And while that case was well-publicized, the group is hardly upfront about the “practical experience” of Boudin and others associated with the CJI.

A description on the program's website says it is "situated inside” Columbia, and a part of the school’s “Social Intervention Group,” a research center within the Columbia University School of Social Work. It lists among its goals helping to forge a solution for “a central social crisis of our time, mass incarceration.” The program holds events and conducts research as part of "an interdisciplinary project built around a model of community collaboration" that "seeks to increase the number of skilled practitioners, policy-makers and researchers who can advance the fields of re-entry and incarceration across all disciplines.”

“It’s terrible that she has murderers working with her at a school."

- John Hanchar, brother-in-law of slain Nyack Police Officer Edward O’ Grady

But students and parents who shell out more than $43,000 in annual tuition and fees might be hard-pressed to uncover the fact that former inmates are running the CJI. Outside of a vague reference to Boudin and Cheryl Wilkins being "part of a community of people who have returned from prison," there is no information about their criminal pasts. Boudin's school directory bio, for example, makes no mention of her time in prison. Several other CJI faculty, program members and associates have similarly disturbing backgrounds.

Wilkins, co-director of the CJI, is listed in the Columbia School of Social Work adjunct faculty directory as a “research scientist” and “Associate Director for the Criminal Justice Initiative. She was convicted for her role in a 1996 gunpoint hijacking of a Federal Express truck in Harlem, in which she served as the getaway driver. Wilkins served a 12-year sentence for robbery and assault at Bayview Correctional Facility in Manhattan.

But Wilkins' school biography page makes no mention of her time in jail. Wilkins is also listed as staff associate at Columbia Law School's Center for Institutional and Social Change, though that bio also neglects any mention of her prison time. According to the bio, Wilkins works with teens who have incarcerated parents and is an adjunct lecturer at Columbia, where she often discusses topics concerning the “need of families and communities affected by mass incarceration.”

Denise Blackwell, a “research assistant” under the Social Intervention Group, the parent/umbrella group of the Criminal Justice Initiative, was paroled in 2003 after serving 10 years in prison on an attempted second-degree murder conviction for her role in a Brooklyn holdup in which three drug dealers were killed. According to reports of her 1991 arrest, Blackwell knew the three men and "orchestrated" the robbery.

"By prearrangement, she let the boys in to stick up the place," a New York Police Department lieutenant was quoted as saying at the time. Blackwell’s son, Mack Moton, who was 15 at the time, was tried as an adult and convicted of second-degree murder. He was sentenced to 32 years to life, and is being held in Sing Sing Correctional Facility, in Ossining, N.Y.

Mika’il DeVeaux was one of the keynote speakers for the CJI’s “Removing the Bars” Conference in 2012. But his bio in the conference program failed to mention the 24-year stint he served in Westchester County for second-degree murder and his subsequent parole in 2003, or that he’s co-director of a non-profit with Boudin called Citizens Against Recidivism. Instead, the bio simply says DeVeaux “has more than three decades of experience working with men incarcerated in New York State maximum security prisons and many who have been released following periods of confinement.”

Repeated requests for comment from Boudin placed through Columbia were not returned, but the school responded with a statement.

“There are approximately 1.6 million people in the nation’s prisons and jails and 7 million American children with a parent who is either incarcerated, on parole, or on probation,” read the statement. “The Criminal Justice Initiative focuses on how the social work profession can best address the educational and human needs of individuals, children, families and communities affected by incarceration.”

Requests for comment were also sent to officials at CJI, including Wilkins and Blackwell.

Critics can't understand why convicted criminals with violent pasts should hold such prestigious positions at the vaunted school.

“I am perplexed by Columbia administrators’ plot to commission notorious villains as mentors to the rising generation of Americans,” Josiah Ryan, editor-in-chief for education advocacy blog Campus Reform, told FoxNews.com. “Columbia administrators should send a letter to parents informing them that many of the professors who will teach their children are unable to pass a basic criminal background check.”

Boudin was a member of radical leftist group the Weather Underground, which was responsible for numerous bombings in the 1960s and 1970s, including ones at the Pentagon, Capitol Building and New York's police headquarters. The group was co-founded by William Ayers and his wife Bernadine Dohrn, who themselves went on to long careers in academia in Chicago. The couple was appointed the legal guardians of Boudin's son while she was in prison and has been linked to the early days of President Obama's political career.

Ayers and his wife were even in attendance for CJI's "Removing the Bars" conference in 2012.

"Hungout with Angela Davis, Bill and Bernadine Ayers, Kathy Boudin & others! Wow #removingbars #removingthebars We had a great kickoff event," tweeted Ronin Davis, then head of the Criminal Justice Caucus, a CJI student-leadership group.

The group holds frequent on-campus events, where a common theme is a curious vision of prison reform that seems not to include punishment. Some of the panel discussions at these events include: “How do we DE-carcerate?” and “Society’s Perceptions of the Formerly Incarcerated.”

Last year, CJI held a workshop titled, “No One Wants to Work With Me: Working with Difficult Populations,” where one of the key points discussed was the “misconceptions and judgments of people labeled registered sex offenders.”

The program’s ties to the Weather Underground are deep. In addition to Boudin's involvement and the visit from Ayers and Dohrn, other former high-level members of the Weather Underground were invited to speak at CJI events. They included Russell Neufeld, who went on to become an anti-death penalty attorney, and Laura Whitehorn, who spoke at an October 2011 called the “Troy Davis Teach-in.”

In 1981, a 38-year-old Boudin, along with several other members of the Weather Underground and the Black Liberation Army, attempted to rob a Brink’s armored truck in Nanuet, N.Y. The two police officers and the security guard were killed in a shootout during the attempted heist, and, although Boudin did not fire any weapons, her role as getaway driver earned her a sentence of 20 years to life. She was paroled in August 2003.

Boudin's work in prison education dates back to her stint at the Bedford Hills Correctional Facility in New York. She took part in a 2001 research study on the subject that also included as participants former Black Panther and one-time FBI most-wanted fugitive Angela Davis and Donna Hylton, who served 25 years in prison for her part in the 1985 torture and murder of a Long Island real-estate broker whose decomposing body was found stuffed in a foot locker. That study, and her previous experience with the Weather Underground, appears to have laid the groundwork for her reinvention as an academic specializing in working for -- and with -- violent criminals.

John Hanchar, brother-in-law of Nyack Police Officer Edward O’ Grady, who was killed in the Brink's robbery, told FoxNews.com it is distressing to see Boudin and other violent criminals treated like academic superstars.

“That’s the worst thing I could have heard,” Hanchar said. “My sister had three children and she raised them into good people and what [Boudin] did was take their father from them.

“It’s terrible that she has murderers working with her at a school," he continued. "I could see if they had someone speak who committed robbery and served their time, but murderers? It’s not right.” ]]> Political Rhetoric RitcheyRch http://www.performanceboats.com/political-rhetoric/156481-columbias-cons-ivy-league-social-work-program-run-team-former-prisoners.html <![CDATA[[Event] 2014 Shasta Cat Attack June 12 2014-June 15 2014]]> http://www.performanceboats.com/delta-lunch-bunch-dlb/156473-2014-shasta-cat-attack-june-12-2014-june-15-2014-a.html Wed, 19 Jun 2013 16:52:33 GMT 1.

I had to pull the motor to find a oil leak and while it was out I wanted to feel how easily my pump shaft spun. If spun freely, but when I kind of twisted it back and forth it felt like there was a looseness between the shaft and the impeller. Almost like what you would feel setting the gear mesh on the rear end of a car. Should this be happening or should I pull the pump apart and make sure the nut and keyway are tight?

It had a new Block witch I got from GM and new rotating assembly from Eagle and a new cam. After 30 minutes of testing the Cam gear is wiped out, it looks like the Dist. gear wasnt in sink with it (off the right angle). Also the timing chain was rubbing the block and wore into it a quarter of a inch at the top. It also had a lifter hang up and bent a valve. Everything is going back together, new bearings, new cam, head fixed and everything else looks good.

Here is a link to the thread for the dolly build we just did for Chris and Candice in the K-034... I think it came out pretty bad ass, we made some changes to the last one we did, and this time we used torsion axles. I wasn't a huge cheerleader for torsions but they seem to be working very well. Both the last guys we built trailers for said they towed way nicer than their other leaf spring trailers. Plus with a torsion, you don't end up with a huge gap between the tires, especially a dolly application.

This one has a chromed removable prop cage with recessed rollers and a removable step. All DOT rated tires..... The dolly seems like a great way to go if your garage is a little tight.....

I was at the Havasu boat show this year and saw Caliber there. I talked to Jason who said they just bought Caliber from Al. Then a couple weeks ago I was in Havasu and saw a clean Caliber and started talking to the guy. Turns out, his name is Cliff and he's the nephew of Cliff Lotz(the original Caliber). Cliff said that he has a couple of his uncle's old molds and that he was bringing Caliber back to old form. Minus his uncle's business sense lol. Caliber has a website saying coming soon just like Cliff said. I did notice afterwards, that all the flyers Jason gave me say Caliber 1 powerboats(Like it really matters). Also, Jason's business card is for some used car dealership Coast Motor Group. So is Jason a dealer for Caliber? I love my Caliber and just want to know who owns it so I know who to call when I need anything.

We had the pleasure of meeting Mark Putnam (Unchained) on the boards. Not only did we get to meet him, but he took us out on the lake in his hot-rod. We did not make any crazy passes, but he let us have a quick taste of the power that thing freely throws around. And as cool as his boat is, he is much cooler. After hitting the lake he takes us into town and we have dinner at one of the local hangouts and have a great time. If you have the chance to meet Mark it is well worth your time.

Mark, thanks again for taking us around for a good time. Oh, and thanks for letting Quackie come along.
