I believe the customers boat for the article was around 101.7 but don't quote me.. The Yanmar boat was around 80-82... that i know for a fact. Jeff

They post all different numbers like acceleration; mid-range acceleration; RPM vs MPH; top-end; time to plane, fuel economy...I think it would be good to compare the boats based on all those aspects.

I received a PM asking what makes the hull ocean worthy and strong since the picture I posted only showed the fluff.

I found it a good question. And I don't get asked it often enough. The picture on the left is what is under the liner and in the nose of the boat. The one of the right is the engine bay.

Sorry it took a while to locate a picture.

No Discipline did not have triple 525's. It was a staggered stock 525 boat that did hit 100 once or twice which is incredible for a very, very big 39ft boat with 525's. The boat that was in powerboat magazine was Marc Jameson's boat from NJ which also had 525's.
