Thats not a bad retail price. I like everything except the drives. Rik, should I get it with the #6's

BeetleJuice

What's wrong with the NXT's? How much more to add #6's? I heard the boat ran great at Lake X when they dialed it in. Also from what I have been told you only need to convert over to the #6's if your boat is going to run over 113MPH where there might be a chance of prop blowout with the NXT's.

I was teasin RIK, he sells only Arnesons. As to the NXT drives, they just haven't proven themselves to me like the #6has. I have a problem with customers being Merc's test bed, I heard many mixed reviews, both from manufactures and customers. Many manufactures are marketing speed and every last mph is what the average Joe
wants. So the X dim. is set somewhat higher. I do like the Razor, very different...but I also like diesels, that is what is in my 43 Nortech. Yanmars/Arneson's

we sold a 40 with yanmar 480hp diesels, it was in water at the show this year....the boat was delivered in late june and the owner has 150hours on it already. he goes on these insane trips into the bahamas. hes running about 80 with the boat fully loaded and loves it.

BeetleJuice

I do believe the new 41 Razor has the same bottom as the 40 had with only one step which must go back to the early 90's. Does anyone know if it is a good bottom, like fast, stable, safe, etc.? Is it an outdated design or a tried and proven design that does not need any changes? Anyone have experience with the 40? Your comments would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Jassman

I was going by the Hustler website, under Yanmar section I noticed the 40 was at 75, but 80 is even better. Is the bottom the same on the 40 vs the 41 Razor. Any changes, not that they are needed. Thanks Jeff

???

There are at least 2 of the 40' that run 80 mph with the 480 Yanmars. The one CA claims 81.? but call it solid 80.

Wonder how fast this 41' was at Lake X?

A guy in the Hustler at the show said they have seen 82. I'm not sure who it was though. He was working on the boat. He has a Superboat and a 32 Hustler. Someone there also said it was sold to a couple in CA. Anyone know who?? Was it you Beetlejuice?

ThoroughHustler

the 40 that was in water at the show has on gps 81.9mph that boat is local down there, the is another one in ca. but who knows sometimes you get a monday motor sometimes you get a tuesday 75mph is conservative. As far as the hull goes the 40 and 41 are the same just a differnt deck. and it is a bear in ruff water very nice stable boat i would def not change it.
