We previously showed a video showing 114. Saturday we raised the drive and tried a different prop. Ran a best of 117. We're going to be doing additional testing today with another prop to see if we can find another 3 or 4 mph. While this isn't a big number for the fast cats, it's not bad for a 30' non-step single engine v.

Those are very good numbers for a single vee. I'll bet it accelerates like a rocket. Back in the early 90's I had a 27 Excalibur with a 1052 hp. turbo motor, best top end was 105 mph but it felt like at any time you could cork screw into a roll, but it would go from 70 to 90 in about 4-5 seconds. Thats a great running boat keep us posted on your results. John M.



nice numbers Bill, be safe out there!
