Jeff(26 Redine),
First of all I think it is very cool of you to take your time and pump up the parties involved with your boat. Secondly, always remember that there are faster boats than yours(there will always be). With that being said I would just like to say that I have driven this particular boat for miles on end over 120 mph and it is unbelievably stable/smooth, seriously. So not only is it fast, it does it well and easy. It may go faster some day,,,,,maybe not,,,,,who knows,,,, but I can feel your enthusiasm Jeff, and I think it's cool that you are sharing it with the boards. I think everyone on these boards sees that your humble and just sharing something cool and not tooting your horn. That is a fine line to walk on the forums. Blah Blah Blah..............Have fun and be careful. By the way, it was 100 degrees here in CA TODAY..............UNREAL FOR OCTOBER.
MAN, I ONLY HAVE 67 POSTS IN 6 YEARS...................

I must say you have been involved in some awesome projects over the last few years and no one has anything but praises for your work. Your small production attention to detail mindset has worked just the way it is supposed to. Congrats on some outstanding accomplishments recently and I look forward to seeing what you come up with in the future.
I actually met you a few years ago, I work for Eric over at Maveric Marine, or I do until the end of this week anyway. I have nothing but respect for Eric and the way he runs his shop and will be back to work for him in the future but I have an opportunity I need to take advantage of right now. I live in Thousand Oaks and will be here through the end of the week, if you have time I would love to buy you a beer and maybe check your shop out.

You know, I spent all day tuning that RPM on pump gas and I would have to think it is near 1050 or so(never dynoed it). It has a TON left to go on 93 octane or better. It is just a *****cat tuned on 91 octane where it is now. It is a 540 cubic in hyd roller set up with nothing real special going on except efficiency.

Very impressive. Boat looks and sounds great in the vid.
As was said, there are faster ones. I think it was a 26 Eliminator that won its class a few years in a row at the LOTO Shootout at 144mph with a Big PSI blower engine and SSM6.
Going 132 on pump gas is very impressive. I would imagine with a race fuel tune and the right prop it would be right there. Have fun and be safe.
