haha, yea, I slowed way down and got over to the other side instead of squeezing through.

Speed limit on the river is 55 mph, I was hoping the lights wouldnt come on.

Where in NC are you ?

mgh 10-12-2012 09:51 AM

What type of speed you looking for? Better yet- what drive /engine combo?

ak89 10-12-2012 10:09 AM

Honestly, I'm happy with it right now. It's old... 1992! I believe speed is near 70? I haven't been able to get the GPS to work yet! I don't have great pics atm, but I can scramble one from the day I bought it:

If the numbers are correct I should be around the 105-108 range ! Surface drive and we shaved almost a thousand pounds off of what it use to weigh . Mild little 750hp blower motor !

We come down and hang at Masonboro Inlet and eat at the blue water all the time . That's my favorite day trip ! About an hour and twenty to Get there cruising at 60 . We'll have to meet up sometime

Thanks, its a pain getting in there to clean. But looks so damn good when clean. I polished a bunch of aluminum including the blower, should look sharp when I put it back in

laszlo01 12-26-2012 07:45 PM

Huffer and engine package is looking nice...

R Addiction 12-26-2012 07:57 PM

MGH, I know its out there somewhere but how fast is your Tantrum? HP?

This past year I had it up to 84mph on GPS and got out of it, think I could of got a little more air under the boat but started to get squirly. The engine is a 500hp (from what I was told all stock internals) with aluminum heads and PSI on the procharger was set at 3lbs. So I'd say around 600hp? Never got a build sheet or previous owner never dynoed.
When I ran my slip #s, it came in around 17percent, which I believe I can get it down.
The current prop is a 29p hydromotive, and after talking with bblades, going to try a 30 or 32 bravo I this spring after doing some mods to the carb/intake/heads/procharger/fuel system setup currently. A similar set up on a boat that was for sale a while ago had 675hp and ran 88mph..so I figure I should be damn near that this spring..hope so

Drock78 12-27-2012 03:03 AM

Depending on heads but I would bet your over 700hp Mike

R Addiction 12-27-2012 05:33 PM

Nice....how many hours? Any drive issues?

My Addiction 12-27-2012 08:43 PM

I know the feeling I cant wait to run my new power(555ci 693hp) and see what I can get out of it. Had to winterize it before I got to put it in the boat.
Gonna be a lot of prop testing on Tantums in the spring!!!!!:signs069:

mgh 12-28-2012 11:32 AM

motor has apprx 130 hours, hull around 400. bravo I with a XR lower.

your not kidding about prop testing, i'm thinking bravo I, 30p or 32p
