    I Have been a Python owner for 9 years now but have only been boating in one for 3 seasons due to a lengthy restoration project.
    I want to thank the board Gods for granting this wish!!
    I have recently suffered a computer crash but i will post a picture of my boat.

    Cool thread. My first go-fast was a 24 python. I sold it to donman here on SOS. It was a great boat. Pretty sure the original 502 390hp still hasn't been touched.

    The 502 is still untouched, but I changed a couple other things on the boat ....

    If you don't have it already you might want to add hydraulic steering. Cable steering sterndrives will start flapping around at those speeds resembling chine walking. That was the issue I had with my Python.

    A python over 70 needs hydraulic steering or it will go crazy.

    GET Hydraulic Steering!!!

    If you drag 1 tab a touch it can help with the chine walk as well.
