THE BOAT HAS A LOT OF ROOM, NICE CABIN, LOTS of FREEBOARD and with the 525s screamed. We cruised at 60 at around 3500 to 3700rpms at 4000 we were running in the 70s, a couple of times went up to 80 . the boat handled the 80s like it was on flat water, not the 3 to 4 ft junk water we were running in. I think runs in the 90s which I am sure the boat does with the 32 B1 props handles sweet. we got some air here and there and it flys level... art
Thanks for the unsolicited comments Art. Steve's boat is one of the most attractive ATs ever built, and it runs like a rocket on rails at 92mph.

!!!Absolutely!!!!
What he said!
I ran next to REMEDY briefly @ the Jammin run and it was incredible to watch...I thought New Moon rode "above the Snot"; but that 33 is in a different league; By far my favorite AT ever!

He kept the comments on getting some air quite tame. We made REMEDY an airplane at the times I chose.

As always, she landed straight and flat. Pics and video to follow.

5 in the boat, 180 gallons of fuel and humidity you would be proud of in Virginia.
