Holy crap! I read somewhere that it would be around 3-400 bucks and expect 2-3 mph on average. Ouch!

29 shockwave. It seems to be about 5 mph off what I expected. Their hulls look a little wavy from the sides. I asked Jim Wilkes about this and he said it's because they pop them out of the molds too quickly. Hot Boat says it will do 70 with a 500efi engine.
