ive been in one with close to 700's that ran 103... lightened up a bit.
I saw the one with merc 600's up here not to long ago and as a 32 lover it was an amazing boat. |
There's a friend here locally that has a 32 with 600s that runs 100 plus. The boat runs 78-80 with 502 mpis. Just to 600s that's 400 more HP. That's is worth about 20 mph. That jumps you to 98-100. And he also runs imco -3 in lowers & hering props which takes it to 100 plus.

my 32 with 502 carbs runs 75 mph, my friends 32 step with 500efi runs 88-90 all day long, Im sure 600 would be really close to 100

What props is he running? |
Would a 97 model be that fast. I figured a newer one would be.
|
It would be alittle slower but not a lot.
|
Ok. I was misinformed. It is a 80s 10 meter with 680 hp twins. What will it run?
|
What kind of drives & props?

80 Plus Maybe Touch 90 With A Perfect Setup.
|
Thanks

"CAB".... Or is this Craig Bush, Seems you are doing a little research on the Black Fountain. Reggies numbers are real close, Still got some dialing in to do. Always remember that the Checkmate will always get better gas milage...lol
|
I had to ask because you wouldn't show me anything sunday.
|
lol.. I hear ya :cool-smiley-011:, Well it's looking like you will still be king of the lake. With our current setup, it looks like high 80's to 90 tops. I don't think we will be climbing past 90 without changing things pretty drastically and thats not on our agenda list. We are just pleased for it to be running period. That thing had a hundred little gremlins we had to chase down and we still haven't fixed all of them yet. We are planning on being on the flint Sunday, maybe we will see yaw out there.
|
I am planning on coming. I have not had it out in a month.

With 700 HP your boat should be a 100 plus

Custom 32
Reggie, I have a 98 32 fever with all blue gelcoat with red victory stripes. The hull has a total of 7 hrs with the drives holding only 5. This boat has been heavily modified with the entire cockpit being pushed back towards the stern 12inches. You really have to look to notice the change, the work is finaminal! we are installing 588 talldecks with a 1:36 drive ratio. This is a one of a kind fever with a classic look. You should take a look at this one, the only fever i know of with as many alterations performed.
|
I would love to take a look at it. It should fly,that would be a real fun one to setup.
