I love the colors from the 91 catalog- now i can see the color choices for my boat.

On the Hawk brochure it says the 525SC is a 502 block. I've read that the Hawk 525 is a 454?

A freind of my family bought that boat from the Nordskog family and i rode it before and after resto. It hasn't been in the water since he sold and that was over 5 or 6 years ago. It needs some TLC again.

Ran just a tad over 100mph and it rocked. I know it holds the record from Canada to Mexico non-stop. I think in total it can hold 800 gallons of fuel.

yeah i would think it would run over 100 easy since there is no interior or anything on the boat. i guess the fuel adds alot of weight. you think it still holds any of the records? i hear nordskog did a few records in it but i cant find anything about his accomplishments online.
