I'm sure he's trying to see actual top speed compared to other boats, not with extra HP.

Laveycraft.

So by your comment I am going to assume these engines are bumped up... Which to me would make a lot more sense with that top seed number.
Very impressive none the less.

I even got to drive! Look at that smile on my face.

Here is the 47 Fountain we played with - triple 700 boat.

Great shots. You look good behind the wheel. We may have to do something about that.

We ran about 40 miles with him Sunday Labor Day weekend from the 20mm to the 1mm and back. Boat ran great.

Told my wife I was going for a quick boat ride and was gone three hours and forgot my phone! I ran out the door I was so excited. That went over like a fart in church.

It was worth it
