I have no dog in this fight (as Michael Vick now says) but... please answer the question...how fast is your Fountain and the AO you speak of...Just curious??? Dave

Top speed you sneak up on with a new setup with that much power. I know he is sorting out the water pickup issues he was having. Can't just jump in the boat and WOT first time out. We may have to line up all the Ateco powered cats on the Shiver and let em fly. The American Offshore 26' is an Ateco engine also. My MTI, the Daytona and the AO.

When your down here in TX shoot me a pm and we can run your 42 for a little money.

PS: Dereberry is still a joke.

Yes the 27 just packs more air , it is for sure the fastest single Daytona. I say 850-900hp gets the 27 right at 120mph if setup is good.
