Boat High Altitude Tuning & Propping, Lake Tahoe
We are the high altitude specialists. Lake Tahoe is over
6000 feet in elevation. At this elevation there is about
20% less oxygen in the air. Your boat doesn’t like this and,
as a result, you will lose about 20% of the boat’s power
at altitude. You must adjust your engine and drive train
to the lower horsepower and less oxygen. We can get your
boat to jump up and go! When you do nothing, your boat will
be “bogging” your engine down and burning a lot of fuel,
which could also result in major engine failure. The worst
part is your boat is slow. If you can’t deal with the 20%
loss, we can soup up your engine a little and get it back!
It is also the best way to keep Tahoe blue. That is a big
deal up here because we value the water’s clarity. Like the
new invasive species inspections at the boat ramps, there
are also inspections planned for polluting boats that are
not acclimated with the proper tuning and propping. So, do
it for your boat and the lake! |
