... and they're choked down quite a bit with the new merc. quiet exhaust, small tube headers and small tail pipes.

i would presume if all of that was removed and run with large tube headers straight out the back, you'd see an additional 3-4 MPH, easily.

I still can't believe how much of a better ride it is than ANYTHING else I've been in.

James seemed to like it as well.

Here is a shot taken while doing around 100.

Photo taken without any image stabilization on the camera too !

You know.... we were amazed that Chris's phone didn't ring as we went buzzing by you guy's place. He says one of you two almost always see/hear it when a go-fast is buzzing around out there! LOL......

FYI ---- I saw your Glad. at OP... what a clean boat ----- really nice!
