- It has been a long process but the checkmate finally made it to the island, right now the fastest it will go is 63.2 mph with a 24p 3 blade furry at 5650 RPMS. listen closely and you will hear the rev limiter beep a few times.

THANK YOU FOR ALL THE LOVE AND SUPPORT!
She is coming together well man. Glad you fixing all the bugs. Can't wait to see that baby with a bigger prop.
Thank you man little by little
Must be bad ass to cruise around with that skyline in the back grounds. Especially at night. We're I'm from its just trees amd hills lol. At night shit is black haha.
I like this guy
Bro I love your boat it's sweet.
Thank you bro 🤙🚤💨
Just don’t end up on Alfreds Chitshow at black point marina. Lol your be on two RUclips channels. Ha ha love the videos.
Alternador.,Power to the spark wires..is not gas you.is supuse to be 13.6
What's the model of this hull?
Maybe you need a 4 blade fury
dude the air compressor is failing
Lol I don't have a air compressor it's a EFI
@@boatvibes Looks like an Optimax in the thumbnail.
Bad stator
My engine dose not have a stator it has a alternator
@@boatvibes its a 4 stroke ?
No 2003 250 efi 2 stroke
@@boatvibes wow i would of thought a 250 on that size boat would do about 80 mph have you thought about putting some Chris Carson composite racing reed valves and stuffer kit in the intake it makes a big difference atleast it did in my old 150 merc ?
Ahh prop testing. My favorite and most frustrating times.
Just subscribed. its cool seeing you testing out your boat and walking around the island. We get to live your life through youtube. Not sure how you have the time, but keep doing it brother!
Thank you for subscribing man 🤙
Damn glad the MERC is running strong. Keep the videos coming brother
Great vid . for issues like that Donzi with water coming in the transom they make a scupper cup . looks like a plastic cup with a ping pong ball in it that will stop ALL water from coming in . bolts in over the holes on the outside . the cup has a slot to let water drain . almost sank my brand new 197 sea fox back in 03 when the bilge got jammed , only 30 hrs on her . the water was an inch from the top of the batteries 25 miles out lol . i made it back and found the scupper cups the next day . she stayed bone dry until i sold her in 18' .
Hahahahha I can only imagine the fun it must be to blast some loud ass music and go full throttle on the wide open ocean in a speedboat.
When I am out Prison we’re gonna ride together!
Was Your boat overheating? You have to check the piss or make sure that the engine is pissing out of the side guarantee you have seawater cooling the engine.
try a 26 trophy... i got very good results with it with my 22 activator with a 250 downdraft motor
Trophy Plus is what’s on my CM
Slow take off because of that high geared prop - it's set up for top speed - same thing I did with my boat... I like it!
I have the same motor as you I wanna get that app you have in your iPad any way you can point me in the right direction
I was going to say earlier in your video it sounded like a fuel pressure problem
You try a clever prop yet. I know it takes a different lower unit but it could get some exhaust cavitation and give you more rpm on takeoff.
Clever props are so cool I have not had one yet but I’m wanting one for my ranger 20’ black max 1994 wish it would run 70 but get 56 mph
Thinking boat is very heavy.
The ranger is for sale bc I want a 25’ Liberator.
Cleaver prop my bad
I spelled it wrong lol.
when I get the liberator I will be out for a ride with you guys.
I’m trying to find a way to get a liberator by next year.
In the process of buying my first to tow behind the hotrod. 1974 checkmate, not sure of model. Was told it had a 6cyl. I think a predictor.
I can't wait to enjoy life like this bro
Boat looks great but it's looking like it has way too much hull in the water. You'd probably clock some good numbers with a bigger prop.
How did you install the vessel view on that engine
My engine comes with smartcraft so I connected to Bluetooth module to the diagnostic connector
If your batteries are not brand new chance them. I've literally bought brand new batteries and had problems. It's definitely an electrical issue
Needs a nosecone low water pickup gearcase for one, checkmates like trophy props, lots of bow lift
That boat should jump out of the water on a takeoff. You probably have water in your fuel.
She’s looking good!! I can’t wait to get a ride!
Definitely man 🤙🚤💨
Man my seaswirl would look great cruising w checkmate
I want to be this guy when I grow up
😄
What seats do you have in that boat? Recently picked up a Velocity that needs an interior. - thanks
I got them from bassboatseats.com I highly recommend 🤙🏼
I have an old 1993 150 Black max merc on a 18 ft Astro bass boat and it will do 72 mph on smooth water and acceleration off the rip that will snap your head back you cant beat these old two strokes when their tuned right
Man you have to send me a video of that. Anything over 60 with that engine is questionable
@@boatvibes i defiantly do that im rebuilding my transom right now but should have it back on the water in about two weeks and yes i agree it is very questionable im going off the speedo on the boat which is stock so its honestly probably off and the lake i go to i don't get any reception so i can't use the speedo app but I'm going to install a new speedo as well so we will see i will send you video as soon as i get back on the water.
Love that KEY WEST shirt. From your neighbor from south..
Thank you! It's from last years keywest fpc poker run
My boat beeps when it’s low on oil
What type of checkmate is this?
If you have a 150 you should have no prob running 70 with no load. My Ranger 19’ has a 200 with the high five and top speed is 63 mph.
If I change prop to a three blade I am betting I could hit 70.
But I like the hi five because when I’m loaded down heavy I can still run 60’s
I have a 2003 250 efi. I'm going to try a 25 tempest next.
Run 2 cans of Seafoam through it. Also put a water separator on it.
Actually I think that has a water separator on the motor.
My 1994 EFI does I’m pretty sure.
Man that thing should be pushing 80 mph
I wish man! I just got the injectors cleaned but I am going to run some seafoam next time I take her out
Try trimming in in choppy waters. Keep up the great work with vids
Lol yeah.. You think? Trim is to put it on the trailer not for adjusting how it's riding...... I'm sure the man knows how to trim a boat... I hate when people comment to act like they know something talking to someone that knows what they are doing... The man knows to lower the trim to get on plane and then trim up to get the boat on pad and get the ride dialed... In really rough water trimming up IS NOT what to do as in that rough of water it would 100% cause him to catch air... Get on plane and trim the nose slightly above level, let's you run pretty quick BUT keeps the hull in the water....
Awesome boat man! Glad you got her dialed in! I just picked up a donzi 22 classic. Do you ever see 22 classic’s down there?
Thanks man 🤙🏽 22 classics no, I have only seen 1 maybe 2 sweet 16s.
@@boatvibes are you on Facebook?
I have a account but I don’t log into it. I’m mainly on IG and RUclips. @Mr.ls3 on IG
Maybe try a 26 chopper or a 25 tempest awesome video!
Thanks brotha 🤙 yes I have a 25 tempest at home I'm going to try next. But I really want to try a 24 brovo. I ran a 24 chopper I did not like the crazy cavitation on take off.
How much you would sell the cheakmate for ??
I told my self I will never sell it but if you want it for $30,000 I'll consider it. ( My girl is next to me saying "its not for sale" ) lol
Looks so fun so cool love the checkmate bro
Thank you man it's my pride and joy
How's the paint job doing? Thinking about trying it..
It's doing good man. I been faking care of it. I'm going to do a update video in a few months to get a real Idea on durability
@@boatvibes Cool Brother, Thanks for the updated..
Did you make it to the keys? We came back to Miami from Marathon today, and the traffic going south was crazy!! You buy the boat? I buy the motor?
Yes I launched out of Caribbean club at around 5pm to see the sunset it was really windy to we just hung out around Gilbert's. I'm editing the video now
You need different boat
Why? You don't like?
Chopper prop bow lift!
True but I don’t like the take off of a chopper prop. You have to hammer down till it grabs.
What way? Mine shoots me off the line. I do believe it's rake that gets the nose up? 👍
How do you get you iPad to sync up to the boats run info / FYI great jib on the boat/ I’m updating a 242 ls formula
It's a add-on that mercury sells called Mercury vessel View. It connects with Bluetooth. Thanks brotha 🤙 good luck with your build
