Vyper, talked w/ friend that his 43 w/ merc 850's was at Miami, hit 102ish and w/ prop trials was told maybe 105-6ish! I do believe he has the light lay-up. Maybe Terry can confirm this!!

I saw that one at the show... It was gorgeous!!!

I also rode a 43V with BIG diesels and Arneson's. That was interesting since I'd never riden on a diesel go-fast. That boat was also gorgeous with it's blue paint job! If I lived and Floriday and got around to the Key's often I would take the diesel boat in a minute! Here's a pic.

Here's the cockpit. The boat did 73ish and would run nearly 700 miles on a tank!
