Perfect Pass

[Janky]

Finally pulled the trigger on a Perfect Pass kit. Also bought a wetsuit so I can test it out before next season
Should be here next week. Love to hear any advice from those who have installed them before. Volvo Penta 5.0GXi-E.
Otherwise, I'll post details when I do the install.

I'm thinking about it so much I had to doctor up a preview.

My son in law would be so jealous. Very nice. Looking forward to seeing follow-up posts.

I'm sorry. I have no advice. I read the title as "Perfect Ass" and had to check in

Wow, super fast shipping, even from Canada, eh? Can't wait to dig into this!

Step 1 completed, servo installed at engine/throttle. So far so good...

Good news, all done with the install. Took two weeks to squeeze in with the "honey-do" list of other stuff.
Bad news. Weather was crummy today so I didn't get to take it out to test!

Got it out this weekend, and it worked like a champ! It actually surprised me that by default it was "ON". I hadn't run the boat in 6 weeks so I eased into it. Upon dropping the throttle a bit away from the launch, the boat quickly got up to speed, Perfect pass 'beeped' and started easing off the throttle! Cool!
Unfortunately, my crew had a time limit and everything took longer than expected so I didn't get a chance to wakeboard, but then again, it was only 46F, so maybe next time With just a few passes (and only 2 passengers), it seems like 20.5 is close to the perfect wake. I promise pictures next time.
