What a nice piece you have Darren! I was talking to Dave the other day, the 35s he's building you should get you real close to that 125 mark - which is phenomenal for a 32' cat with a pair of warrantied outboards on the back. Congratulations, you've got to be happy!

You might hit 125mph just on the cooler temps I think

Yes, we still have not moved the motors up, just switched props.

So now we know there is not a hard limit at 7000rpm. That's pretty cool.

Were you hitting a soft limit?

Looks like you are very close to were you need to be.

Well done on the set-up this early.

There actually is a hard limit at 7000. It just overshoots the 7K slightly as it's reducing power. You can feel it in the boat. It is very noticable. Cowisl and I were talking about how the boat accelerates SO hard right to 121-122 where it hits the limiters and it holds the motors back.

My father was in Alton on Friday and sent me a few pics of your boat. Very impressive. I have no clue how to post them.
