I do not know the owner , or even if the present owner was running the boat, but the video is how not to run in 4-5 footers.. tabs all the way up, azz end hitting the next wave and the bow heading straight into the next , passengers leaving their feet in the cockpit. It was a pretty dangerous run to me. I do not have the video myself and I have no details as to who was running the boat, so I can't say anything bad about someone I don't know.. Like a few azz'z do !!!

If you wanted a flat bottom boat you could get it. Thats why there is a 2002 flat bottom Top Gun.

83 mph is what I endedup at. ....... but it took alot of work dialing it in. Just ask Las Mesa and Albert
