There are a few people who want to sell there boat... not a very long time ago there where 2 Doug Wright's for sale.. Don't know if they are still for sale..

http://lakecumberlandmarine.com/used...b71c1201ddd494 her is a Skater... But with a Doug Wright you will be more succesful I think! The Skater runs 107mph, a DW runs 117-130 depending on how old they are.
But good luck with the searching!

Also , the speed on the recall was not the max speed that boat ran, it was simply the max speed it ran with the last set of props tested

Cool

Ryan is correct. While some of the newer boats are running 120's and maybe a little faster they are doing it with a set up to do so. It is not a race set up what that they are using. Light on fuel, tall wheels and only necessary gear needed to get there.

I was reffering too top speed! But I can imagine no one is running 120+ in race trim! Would a skater be competitive in the X-cat series? I saw your boat running in a few races and it looked very competitive but I also saw that the boat @ lakecumberland wasn't in the X-cat series. Is there so much difference between a 30 and a 32?

Thx
