Exactly.

PPLAY33 how does it handle at those speeds and have you reaches 100? :drink:

I talked to a guy at Fastboats.com when I was in Florida. he said he used to race a 33pp staggerd (I don't remember the HP) but he said it ran 107. He did say at that speed it would begin to chine walk and become unstable, but thats true with all straight V bottom boats at some point.

I have HP 500's in mine and look for the very big water so I can have an advantage against speed.

Hi Andrew,

Yes, the boat did run in the 90's at the time we ran it with the new power. But I knew it had more, so I took the boat to Jimmy Mac from Falcon Marine here in Long Island and he help me get that boat to run over 100 in 85-90 degree weather after some tweeking. I was pleased with those numbers.....I miss that boat....lol

I would love to see pictures of the 6 man ste up. I may want one of them. I may even think about my old one and get it back and make it a super hot rod.

The six man setup is the only thing I wish my boat had. I've got a separated 3 person bench that looks interesting, but isn't the most practical. Not exactly sure what the purpose of it was.
