JCPERF,

Do you know if any have been done with a Merc 525 or a Merc 496 as of yet???? Curious to see the kind of performance it gets with Factory power-plants in it. Any idea on how the customer said it handle??? Going fast in a straight line is one thing but being able to turn it is another as I am sure you know.

Thanks,
DPT

Boat really doesn't exist therefore no pictures. The only pics that were actually posted were of an Outerlimits.

Re: New 29 Activator
 

The boat runs and handles better than the 27.It is probably 2 slower than the 27 with the same power.We have a 27 that goes 92 on GPS with a 525.It seems to turn better than the 27.I have a bunch of pics from the florida pokerrun i have to resize to post.Im retarded so Strip Poker will resize and post for me tommorow.

Understood.
It's my thread so I felt like I could post whatever I wanted to. :cool:
Knowing that the 27 was (and still is) a dominant force in the offshore ranks, the 299 could only be that much better. I think a showdown between the new Extreme and the 299 is in order. That is of course, after we see the pics of the new 299 Activator.
I have to admit it has been a total "skunkworks project" without much publicity.

I have seen the boat and it does exist :D I've seen it up close and I would still like to see some pictures posted. It looks like a 27 on steroids. The boat is way different than the 27, much bigger with big steps. The running surface is pretty much the same as a 27, so it handles very well.
