Hey Guys,
That is the Plum Loco 24 that we built for a customer in Panama City, Fla.It raced in 1992 with APBA in A - class.It was powered with a single 650 HP high compression small block with headers and a Bravo 1 drive.The motor was slid forward with a jack shaft for balance.This boat won a few APBA nationals and finished in the top three at every race it attended.It would run in the mid to upper 80s for speed.The boat had a custom 3 man bolster and the rear bulkhead was moved forward allowing for a much larger engine room.Our customer also wanted to have the headers go through the hatch over the transom.The hatches would open to the sides.The entire boat was sprayed in a custom ordered purple gel coat.
I heard from my customer a while back that he had powered the boat with an 850 HP big block and had it running 102 MPH with some more left in it.
Regards,
JO
