Something like that.

There are a few Schiada ski race boats with BIG motors that run well over 100. That's hauling in a boat that size.

That boat is long gone! And trippledigits "rules" state you have to have an Alpha drive.

It's a joke, he's just rattling some chains.

Why leave the O/B out? Just about any allison with a 2.5 would take good care of those boats.

The point of the microboat thread(that started over two years ago) was for people to chime in that had a sterndrive V-hulls under 23' and post their speeds. Mr. trippledigits joined a few months back and immediately started insulting people and talking smack about his 100mph boat. Then yesterday he issued his "challenge".

OK...Here I am:

81.4 mph GPS

That`s with 23" prop spinning 5800 rpm.
Just got a 25" Mirage Plus. Will try it out this weekend.
To be honest, I was having a hard time with chine walk at about 77+. If I can keep it under control we`ll see what this new prop gives.

Here are a few of my latest engine photos:
Yep, that is my old boat -- 22' Baja. Been too long, couldn`t remember the exact guidelines to qualify as a "micro boat".
