I was on a 43 with triple 525s we ran 98 mph and she was rock solid.

That all silver boat was a nice lookin boat :cool: . Donzi has done a great job with their new line, bottom is fast, never been in one to comment, but will definatly check it out at the show. Shanghied what is the cabin like, headroom and all.

By the way, I blew up a motor coming back from Key West today. :mad: We were 20 miles from Marco and I heard a heavy duty clanging noise coming from my starboard motor so we shut it down. Still able to get back with 2 motors and cruise at 52 MPH, no problem. Had a great time down there tho as would be expected. :D

Bob, sorry to hear about your motor committing suicide :(

My point was any big V suits me just fine when its rough out. My 25 cat in anything over 3 to 4 fot sloppy water gets real hairy trying to stay in contact with the water. Zrunning in your rig on G Bay in 6 to 8 foot rollers was awsome. The same can be said for running in that kind of water in GLH's Tigern Champlain a couple summers ago. My little kitty stayed at he dock nice and safe while I got to go for a boat ride in the big water with no fear of imminent death :)

Headroom in the cabin is low, you can sit and laydown no problem you have to duck a little going down she is 5ft in the cabin area but what a small sacrafice for the way this boat runs.

Any V-bottom poll that doesn't include Apache is a joke.
