Don't forget about JetSet. Had to throw in a Jersey boat. Think it has almost touched the magic 200. Couple of mph short......Ive had my old Donzi up to 75. Nothing to make you pull out of poker runs over. Not too bad for a 22' 1979 boat. Still has more, just havent had time to mess with it much.

I find it amusing that not one single boat runs 191 to 200, but 7 of them run 200+.

No one is going to be able to argue about 5-10 mph I would think,,, but if you say it does 70 and its a 100 mph boat,,,your going to have problems.

According to the article the now have speed tables for boats and what they should do with "X" power.
Yeah - the table said a 29 Outlaw with 850hp has a top speed of 55mph.

As I am certain that OSO can verify, I have never responded to this poll. So, like others on this board, I would like to know who made the seven entries above 200 mph.

The times that I have seen Scorcerer at the 1000 Islands I too wonder how it continues to idle. The blowers on that thing are as big as the powerheads on my outboards! It is funny though, they always seem to have a laptop computer hooked up to it and always finagling with something. Neat boat, but give me turn key 100 MPH with #6's and I would be VERY HAPPY!
