Who is the fastest?
 
Just curious... who has the fastest Black Thunder? How fast and what is the set-up?

I have always wondered what the hull does with big power.

I would guess Steve David's is the fastest.

I think I can give Steve a run for his money:D

Actually, we'd both get our butts kicked by that 43 talldeck that was out of Cleveland. He had twin 1200 Sterlings on #6's and as I understand he could run nearly 100 MPH pretty consistently. Almost any flat deck BT with good power will also give us a good run for our money. 1400 less pounds and a whole bunch less aero drag. Betsy's boat comes to mind........

The fellow out of Lake Tahoe with twin 900SC's would also give us a heck of a run, as would the guy with the trip 675 Eickerts.

There's, yours, mine, we're all quite blessed to have some pretty cool boats that run darn well for mondo condos.
So, I'll leave the racing for the Unlimited Hydro. Then again, if Horseplay just happens to be near the same Ocean I am and both of our wives are no where near............................. :)

See you guys at the Miami show.

I saw Horseplay at the Metro Beach boat show this past weekend, and it was definitely the highlight of an otherwise crappy show. Very, very nice...

Thanks! That's nice of you. Even though the show was small, we had a good time. Got to meet som nice poeple. Also had the opportunity to meet Mr. & Mrs. PartiYacht and their new toy. Now if the weather would please turn around.
