It suprised me that it had full bulkheads about every 18". Also suprised me that it had 4 stringers in the deck which I had never noticed in other boats I have looked at but could be more common than I know of.

Can you get some pictures of under the deck? Thanks Eric

Not this time of year its put away. I discovered it peaking in there were the roll up cabin door should be. Freeked out at first because it was all black in there thought it might have caught on fire but was just the black carbon matt. Pulling up some floor boards annd what could be seen under the cabin floor I then understood why head room was less than a fiberglass standard version in a brochure. Was also the first time I had seen a keel stringer in a glass boat. Think it was 8" in ht under the deck and 28" tall between the engines possibly still close to 28" under the cocpit between the tanks but not sure.

Mark that owned Chiro1 clamed big numbers for speed and it don't do it....Herd that rite from Gary the new owner. Think mine is around 9600 maybe its 10600 but its faster with the same power as all these super light ones. I would think the ones that have half the full bulkheads would be at the top of the light ones.

What does your boat weigh and what does it run? I can tell you island racer weighs 10,500 and runs 107 gps with 1050's.

Boat I think about 9600# + Gear 200# tools fire extinguisher bumpers life jackets anchor cooler for beer +gas 200Gallons=1300#+ 3people total 11,670# 960Hp 110MPH :bunnydance:
Video on you tube going down east river at 110MPH in some spots. On GPS.

nice numbers! that's a rare piece to be able to run over 100 with less than 1000 a side. is there a heavy current on the river?

There can be curent depending on the tide. Its gone 110.7 on the longisland sound in dead flat water. The props need some tweeking. Hoping new power to put the boat in the mid teens.

Your numbers don't add up well using a traditional speed calc. If your speed and hp numbers are correct, I suspect you're a lot closer to 8500 lbs or so to be running almost 111 mph.
