I didn’t think I would use this boat anymore, since it best serves Scream And Fly Magazine for instrument and component instillation articles rather than actual use. This X-Stream V-King has been used a total of three times, and has remained covered in my garage for its entire existence. Well, it appears that the boat will once again be put into service once more, maybe twice.

The Mercury EFI Bridgeport that powers it currently will be perfect for two upcoming tests. First, is to test the Brucato Pro Control Unit (PCU), which is a programmable fuel injection computer. For the second test, a Brucato Stackable Velocity System (SVS), which is basically an air intake system for fuel injected Mercury outboards.

I’ll pull her out of the garage and start preparations for the test in the coming weeks. First, the fuel injectors will be sent off to Brucato Machine and Tool for servicing and flow testing in preparation for firing up the dormant engine for the first time in several years.
