What up buddy. I did a 38 2001 Top Gun nonstep with 900 Zuls #6 that ran 102-104 on its best day. 2000 TS F2 Dick Simon Boat ran 90-91 0n its best day so yes it is possible to run 100 with 900hp on bravos

Thanks dude. It seems they are very random with their speeds and power.

Was speaking with someone and they claimed the old Team V 38' will run 100 with 600 hp? The boat has no cabin and such but that would be fast.

'03 TS Gun "Out of Control" is back in Miami. Phil is tweaking it and he believes the boat will run more than the 105mph posted in Powerboat Mag....
105mph - 750 Zul's with Bravo's....:evilb:

Does that boat have a cabin?

half cabin - facing benches, ice chest, storage closet - I forget the term Cig has for it.

Got to think 920 hp was auto trader hp not dyno hp. I have a pair of 500hp motors with pro chargers that dynoed at 745hp ,so I would think that number is a lot closer to what your working with . Good luck ! :ernaehrung004:

Cold water is also more dense and therefore makes the boat go faster because of better buoyancy.
And If its the Moscow River we are talking about well itīs fresh water so during summertime it makes boats go a lot slower than in saltwater.
