Smitty,

I thought that you did break the triple digit mark. Glad you survived to talk about it. Every hull has it's limit's and I think you have found the limit on the 272.

Thanks for posting the information.

Doc

This bad boy is not going in a Baja but is going in a single 28 footer.

Can you say 1100 HP!

Looks like a sewage treatment plant with all the piping to & from the intercooler.
