Excellent numbers John, sounds like there's more left too! Are the engines 100% stock? How much fuel and how many people were on board when you guys hit 134?

Again, nice numbers for a 40' cat!!!

The boat is running great and getting closer to being dialed in.

First test was 6.5% slip.

200 gallons of fuel

Props spinning out and we are going to test turning in soon to see results.

200 Gallons of fuel

Yes, the motors are 100% stock, just bouncing off limiters right now.

More props to try but real close.

The LOA 44' X 11' beam

Infused epoxy carbon layup, no screws, 8500 pounds.

The boat is incredible and if all goes as planned we will have the first three all at the MIAMI Run after the show and an 1100 4400 and 2 39CC's in the booth at the show in February.

Scott, don't even bother try spinning in.

8500 lbs is dry correct?

John wants to try as well as Mercury to see difference so we are going to give it a shot and see what results we get. Boat is so user friendly right now and very easy to drive. The 100 boats will spin inboard and yes the boat is 8500 dry.

Makes sense on a new boat. See how it reacts to change.

Going to have great range between fuel stops. That's handy.

Yeah, what a great day it was, alot of fun, and very rewarding, she has no bow rise getting on plane, it just goes. There is definitely more MPH in her, just got get the right props on her. In the tight turns of the St. John River, she just craved the 90 Deg. turns, and she leans into the turns so nice....now if I just could find my damn cellphone i could post some pics.......

Very impressive numbers. Mercury hit a home run with those 700's. Have never heard a bad word about them from anyone.
