We saw 100mph, very easily, in 3-4' waves. Incredible boat!! The demo boat was setup with a little lower drive height. In those 3-4'ers the drives never left the water once. What a smooth ride. We were cutting the waves, not skimming the tops.

If I was thinking of downsizing..that would be the boat I would take a very hard look at vs the other 39's..Boat was impressive, to say the least.:cool:

yep, i am in love with new Rockit, the dash has to be one of the looking designs out there (IMO)
The new red,silver, black boat is tight!

lavey jr 03-15-2009 04:40 PM
How about the Laveycraft 39' EVO?
It ran 110 with 700's/NXT's and accelerated better than any of the other boats with 700's....

Ever been in a 35(32 really) Fountain in 4-6s? I have and I wouldn't want to do it again. I would do it in your Donzi though.

I have a Fountain 24CS with stock 502 EFI (415 hp) and 26p that runs 76 on gps. I am interested in what the experts think I might get with a 700/XR package in my boat?

Velocity is lighter boat!

Back4More 11-10-2009 10:48 AM
I wouldn't care which one runs that last +2-3 mph faster....The one that is the safest and better riding at WOT would be my concern.

I find these numbers hard to believe, but if you had the GPS and were there?? SO be it, that is impressive, actually that is "Cat Killer" numbers:drink:

Actually was this a tripp set up???

HAHAHAHHAHA

I doubt alot of the higher speeds posted here are with stock power. The 700 's can be modified in a number of ways.

thats fast for a 43.. what does that weigh?

ktron 11-11-2009 11:14 AM
Do they count the bussle in the 43' length? Or is the hull 43' with the additional length of the bussle? Either way the boat is very fast. Just curious.

If thats stock power then its only tipping the scale at 7500lbs.

Did I read Mike F. is with Dustins sister, or vice versa?? Is this what you're talking about? Not starting rumors, think I read that somewhere

With Dustins magic it will run 124 as posted previously.

Amazing that a love interest makes boats go faster....?:party-smiley-004:

OL40SVX 11-11-2009 04:17 PM
No its just a 700 upgrade from Dustin. Anyone can have him do that to their 700's!!!
