Dose Anyone Know What The Speed Record For A Single Vee Bottom Is
Is there a single gas engine VEE bottom with a prop speed record....
I'm sure its in some little boat.... But with Reggies Vee bottom record, I have not heard of any single prop gas engine in a Vee bottom... I know the F1 hydros run 140's with there OB...but I'm talking a vee hull... Anyone know the numbers... Thanks |
I had heard that a Howard 28 Bullett with a GT Performance motor put up some big numbers over 100 mph, but not too many people bother with promoting single-engine V-bottom numbers. I'd like to see what the new OuterLimits 28 would do with a big motor.

i think a stingray with the name triple digits has it. idk the actual speed though...

I would think it would be in the 115 to 120's but I could not find it anywhere...
With all the hype with Reggies record...I would think there would be just as much in a single becuase more manufactures could attempt it and not cost 600k+ to build one...and you would not need the 1000+ hp to get there.... I would think in a avg 25 to 30 foot boat...700 to 800 hp would get you over 100 with no problem... |
You should probably spend time looking through the APBA Speed Records.
The OB record on a tunnel hull is 176.???? set many years ago. |
Allison still holds the single outboard V-bottom record @ 129. Was set back in the 80's. ;) 2.4 Bridgeport on an Allison XR2002. :drink:
