Yes. Said it was a very nice boat. It ran 90 at 5000 RPM in flat water. 6500 is the red line so there was plenty left.He has never had a boat of this caliber so he was alittle intimidated. I think hes going to pass on the boat because of how radical it is. As you know, he has a young child that he wants to take out next year. ...........Maybe its something you should look at Frank!

Has it since been sorted out, I can see the speed is there but how is the handling?

So the boat only has 80hr but yet has had several different owners, it would not be a stretch or going out on a limb to say that the previous owners all gave it a shot at sorting it out. And when they realized it was not going to happen sold it to the next buyer. which was not hard to do being a cig with wild paint and big power.
