I have delt with Steve Stepp at Velocity for years , be's not the type to BS . I was told by he and Kenny both that the bule 700 NXT boat runs 115 consistantly . The second ower just had all the mechanicals rebuilt after 200 hours . The boat is said to be very fast , and that comes from a reliable source .

I know of a 42 Fountain that is in the process of being listed. 700's with #6's. It is a 2007 with 85 hours. I have seen it and it is clean. It will be listed for under $200K. PM me if you want pics and details.

A low hour fresh water Fountain w/700's would be a sweet package for speed , but I am guessing the AT probably has a cormfortable cabin .

I do like that AT a lot, but agree with the others that the paint needs some slight mods.
I'm calling BS on that 39 Velocity running 115 on stock 700's. That's a straight bottom boat, no Fing way are stock 700's touching 115 in that optioned out boat! If the 700's are modded, well that's another story, but lets call them what really are at that point...
I have to agree with Dan, everyone and their brother has a 525 TG in the area. Great, great boats, but there are a lot of them around! And GL tring to find that mild power 32 DW with 6's or arnesons, that's a very rare bird!
For 200k or less, there are a lot of attactive options out there!

First off 39 VELOCITY running 115 loaded is no fcking BS. Better believe it. Stock 700s. Second it's a pad bottom. And third my friend, STEVE STEPP was in fact the first man to go over 100 mph with the same bottom back in 1981. Just clearing up a few things for the none believers. Bob

The 39 Velocity's are fast when they get up on the rear pad. My friend has one that ran around 105 with non staggered 800's. There is something about the blue staggered 700 boat that makes it particularly fast as I am told it walked past my friends boat with ease. I am not a fan of how they ride on the pad at that speed, real fast but feel real loose. Just my opinion. My friend has switched the 850's to 525's and the boat still sees into the 80's.
