Default 2 Rockits in Classifieds

What are people's thoughts on these 2 boats generally speaking?

What is the ride difference between the NXT and #6?

Same "listing" price but one is 2 years newer with much bigger power,,thoughts on why?

Any info is welcomed.

The one with 1100's is one of my best friends. It is a beast. I mean a damn nice boat. You won't find a better riding all around running boat. Not to mention fast as H E L L. If I was looking at that size boat, It would not even be a decision to make between NXT's and #6's. Plus Wilson did the lowers on the 6 boat. They are a work of art. Someone is going to get one hell of a boat for the money. Actually scratch that previous comment. Someone is going to get one hell of a nice boat when they buy that one and I don't care how much money you spend or what you compare it to in a V bottom.

I was really impressed by the 39 they had in Miami. I looked that thing over for about a half hour. They said the 39 rocket was built for rough water and really fast too. They said 115 with 700's, so the one in the classifieds with big power would be scary fast I'd say.

Mean streak was the boat that ran over 130 when Eddie was tuning it and caused quite a stir leading to a 40 page thread. You can search it, "hustler rockit tops 130"

That boat is fast as hell. I've been right beside him several times when we both clamped down on 2,200hp each. Made me have to do work just to get some good eye to eye to time with both of us yelling "You a Bad Mofo" back and forth at each other going so fast we couldn't see....

Me with 4 whipples running like ambulance sirens.....trying to keep up with 2 whipples in that Rockit.

Only thing I can do is hope for boat traffic....turns and jacked up water conditions to keep him out of the top end. I can hold my own up to 120ish. After that it's good night Irene for me. It hasn't happened because conditions were limiting. But there is no question it will do it. There are very few V's that will run with it. It cuts through rough water unbelievably. Watched it side by side hitting big rollers. Same roller...same speed...same angle...my props unloaded and his didn't. Cruising effortlessly beside me not working the motors as hard as mine. That hull is serious in the Rockit.
