That is incredible! One heck of a driver with a very well set up boat!
After taking a small bird to the face at close to 60 on a seadoo, I know understand why I see guys in 80mph bass boats wearing full faced helmets.

My Allison was a dream to drive in the low 90s, smooth water makes a huge difference as does no wind. If they are set up correctly they drive great. Like riding a bike you make small corrections at the steering wheel without ever thinking about it. They are definitely a drivers boat. The record unless it has been broken recently was in an Allison by a guy named David Shook at 129 mph (two way average). Mike

Sorry.... Shook ran 116.+ for an average in 2005.

[QUOTE=Boatlesss;3656076]can you rate the two boats?[/QUOTE
There is really no comparision (except for the similiar speeds with the same power) when you rate both vs each other .
The LANIER overall is superior when compared.
