Chuck, the difference isnt 210K. The boat that ran 120mph with Ilmor's is a lighter, cut down, SV43 not an SL44. They do share the same bottom though. I dont believe another stand up boat has run these numbers with stock 1075's but I could be wrong.

I've said it before but I'll be happy to say it again. That is one of the nicest stand-ups I've ever seen. Can't blame the owner for being so happy.

Would it be right to assume that the 725/Indy would run about 114 mph? For a fully rigged 44 with all the extras, that is friggin' haulin' with 725's.

Happy holidays Dan

The boat will be receiving a basic cabin over the next few months. It ran 139mph in testing.
