I think I'd rather have the "rocket-assist eject" . . .

that's what I say, .........how many of us run an offshore boat at those speeds in absolutely flat water.....this is all a circle j#%k and pure BS....proves nothing to me....show me the benefit of what the hull can do in 2-4 footers where I usually run the boat, then I may be impressed.......

then why don't they just race drag boats..... they are faster anyway :rolleyes:

this is suppose to be the fastest offshore style boat.... so rough water ability is at least a small percent of the equation, not very much, but a small one....

anyway, we all know the fastest offshore boats aren't vee's anyway.... :D :evilb: :D

there are different records for each class i was there and i used to drag race boats and i can tell you to run a v that fast got my attention also to do it in a 1/4 mile verus almost two miles is a big difference you don't get a run at a 1/4 mile they run the boat a long way
