Thanks Dale! I did not ring it out with a full load of people and a 110 gallons of fuel but one quick blast with a load saw 116 pretty easy. The boat has such a great ride and attitude with a load. Those 400's make great torque which helps a lot when the boat is weighted down.

Nice strong pull right to 122. You can see the limiters holding the boat back. Have not tried the Dewlds 35" yet. Also have Merc 34" props coming to try. Right after this video, took another run and hit 123!

It has been cool in the morning but hot during the day. Really has not made a difference in the numbers I have seen. Boat ran 122 in 90 degrees with 85-90% humidity. Just need to run the bigger props and will see more speed for sure.
