Beautiful boat, love the paint, cockpit and cabin...any final numbers yet..72,73...????.I'm just trying to compare on you're set up... Cummins/NXT vs mine Yanmar/ASD-8's...I did like how easy you rotated, appears to be easier manuverability, but speed numbers are a few ticks down..trade offs on everything...I'm still working on which way I'll be setting up the next one.Jeff

I'm sure you guys were probably aware that the European raced P1 39' Hustler weighted to over 10000lb ran 91mph at Coniston records week in the UK by ... quote ... 6-Nov-08 V Ganjavian 91.080mph 91.565 ... 91.32mph average the engines are Yanmar 440hp 5.8ltr units looking at their boat weighting they suggest the engines are tuned to around 500hp or more apiece

Its not the pic ,the funny trailing edge is the same you find on Mercury outboard 4 blade cleavers (latest style) some call it a brake .
The brand is :Radice ,they are made in Italy.
