their was a 38 TG kevalar hull that use to run lake mi years ago,,the boat was all red and white in the midle,it had the name Next in big bold white letters..1350's # 6's on stand off box's and the drives and box's were also painted white and the owner would change pullys and carbs at any givin minuts to prove a point..with the engines at 1350 the boat did 109,,with the pully change and he would not say the hp the boat was soppose to run 120..the owner owned a big steel copany in indianna and i herd he was killed in a freak accident on his way to work..never saw the boat after that..
BTW the engines are starrared.. and i think it was 6 pack bolsters..

Oh and PS: Craig's boat "Old School" has to be the fastest with that setup when he had the quad whipples.

Yeah it used to be "The Dealer" & my Dad owned it for like 7 years or so. I used to be the only one that would take it out normally so it was kind of "my" baby during those years. People would take pictures of it all the time.
It really needed to be redone when we traded it to Phil years ago, so to see it in the condition it's in now is one of the coolest things I've gotten to see on OSO. Thanks for posting the pics & hooking me up with an update.

Yes that's it! Man that was a cool boat at the time, & even cooler now. The current owner has done an outstanding job redoing it. Over 100mph? That's so awesome to hear.

That is super cool. Even cooler is the fact you own a twin to your dads (and your) old boat. I just like the father / son connection thing. It's very cool.
