The RockIt boat line came out two years ago and I still haven't seen one wet. Florida Powerboat always has a pretty wide range of boats but never any new Hustlers. One club member had a red 50 with triple 575's but that was a few years ago.
I think a friend of mine is buying a new 39 rockit w 700s

Pretty sure I remember seeing pictures of one of the RockIts on the Key West poker run last year.

On the Hustler thing, I know of quite a few that have been ordered an built for all models. From what Ive seen the Rockit hasnt really taken off. Supposedly the one at the show was sold. On the topic of this thread, Id assume Jeff is talking about pleasure boats not a full blown 42ft fountain race boat!! The 41 SL OL with a full cabin with 700's has run 115. The SV 43 with 700's has run over 120 with a half cabin and a five seat cockpit. Both boats are bigger than any Fountain size wise!!
