Was that 147 MPH or 147 BAC ?

funny what some people really believe...the salesman tried to convince me my boat runs 72mph....I laughed in his face and said 65 tops, he didnt like that. :lolhit:

Hard to believe that 1 sperm beat out the other million to create this fellow? What were the other 999,999 like???

75

23p props, 5000rpm, 1.5:1 drive and 10% slip is 65mph, so that's my guess at his actual speed.

Or perhaps he just added a 1 in front of the actual speed.

more like 60 mph

His claim is absolutely TRUE!








So long as you are heading on a Rocky Mountain 30 degree downslope, the trailer breaks free and emergency brakes don't engage. :)

It must be true I saw it on the internet. :eek:

He was being towed by a skater at the time.

You've got a 27' Fountain with 650hp, I'd tell him you wanna race... If he thinks he goes 147mph, he's gonna think you go like 180mph after you race. :drink:
