... 106 with a load and just 600s? Maybe they were a bit tweaked?

I want a ride....

old 38 ran about 86 with 525s that actually produced about 540 per side.... so 60 more horses & a new bottom= 20mph?

It's ok big daddy. We won't laugh to much when you get spanked by a beak boat with stock power.

Most likely not Miami... gotta save my time for many weekends at Grand

Been busier than hell but that is a good thing.... March/April will be crazy but will be able to get the boat dialed in and ready to head north....

I hope someone can get us some pics at the Miami show, especially of the step placement and of the cockpit - which they say is kind of small into order to allow the full stager. I cant wait to see it.
