I had one with twin 420's. It would go a little over 70. I bet a single 700 would do about the same with less weight and less drag. You'll need an XR with all of the good aftermarket parts to live behind that engine. $$$$

There was a Scarab Panther that was converted to a single here in NJ. I saw pictures but never saw it run.

I think they had to either widen the strakes or make them smaller....not sure...

The boat weighs around 8500 with big blocks and TRS.

the boat weighs 6500 pounds with two big blocks we did have it weigh
