All 27 Fountains in stock form should will run faster then 64 if it is propped correctly, not a tired engine, etc. (With the exception of that one that came with the Volvo setup that was just for sale). Even your "custom" powered Mariah can't beat a Properly set-up stock 27 :lolhit:. Maybe those 27s weren't up for racing a bowrider. Im sure there have been Jetski riders who thought they could beat me when I am cruising at 50% throttle. I run mine WFO when I choose to. Enjoy your Chapparel/Mariah whatever it is.

Excuses Excuses. You guys (Breakitout) always have excuses whether it's to much fuel on board or hitting the rev limiter or oh it's just not running right or to many people on board or not the correct prop or your breaking in the motor.

However, there are many Fountain, Hallett, Powerquest, Scarabs owners that will give you credit on a good run. These are the true performance boaters just having a good time.

Plenty of CATS do 180- 200MPH! There are more Cats that do 150MPH or more then Fountains that go 100MPH or more!:kiss:

hows this for an excuse my jet-ski will smoke your boat in a race, top speed and acceleration! I dont even need to fire up the big Fountain to do that :grinser010: :evilb:
A boat needs to be setup properly if you want to 'race' it against another one and have a fair shot of running at its maximum capability. Only an idiot can't understand that.
