A 39ts with 700's and will do 110mph ik for sure but a 38 witch isent done testing and stuff but with Whippled motors that came up a little of 700hp only runs around 100mph with xr's its bc they all run out of prop!!!
If I got the speed wrong on a39 with 700's plz correct me my friend who has one said he got his to the but his mechanic said he has had the boat to 114mph witch seemed a bit hight???

Phil's last Gladiator with Merc 700's/NXT's gets my vote! Neil and Phil custom built the boat and it was custom from head to toe! One of a kind! If I'm not mistaken I think it ended up in Texas somewhere..
