Engine?
 
This is mostly directed towards MGH. I've been pondering around the forum, but I can't seem to find any information regarding what kind of power you're working with. The boat seems to run very well, definitely much quicker than the traditional Tantrum. Just thought I would ask out of curiosity.

I don't think there is a "traditional Tantrum". I would be supprised to see two with the same set-up.

It has a hair dryer, N'uff said.

fatherb ..he has a Bad A$$ set up... I believe Pat Musi (race car engine builder) put together his motor.

my motor is a 500hp carb w/ procharger..we have it apart for some upgrades this winter. should be good for a few more mph.

here was a quick video coming back in one day..water was choppy..boat loved it

the tantrum is a 'BIG' 25 ft boat..glad I decided on this model..will be very difficult to 'upgrade' out of this hull without spending a considerable amount of $..but to be honest I have had my eye on a few cats.

Here's another video from the same day taken from my Tantrum showing MGH's boat. I was running close to 5,000 rpms and he pulls away like I'm not moving.

GF falls with the camera a few seconds in, kinda funny...

I apologize, I can see how my wording would come off potentially ignorant to what's really going on. By traditional I really meant what would have been stock form, new of purchase, back when the Tantrum model was still being produced. Clearly there are some seriously high horsepower Tantrums floating around. Thanks' to all for posting videos, they never get old watching. I can only hope to own one some day in the future.
