Just read in the My Way thread per JC in post #63 the motors are 1200's.

Stock 1075 in a sv43 hung out runs around 143.

Know" What hull holds more kilo records than any vee bottom?

I would probably guess Allison or Hydrostream.

"Know" that I am not talking about river rat boats.

You two sound like little *****es, to be honest.

Hell, TRL505 called the other guy a moron after using "their" incorrectly. Irony.

So yeah, 140 may not be 177 but still bad ass in a large Vee and fastest there. End of story and well done guys! Think I read this was a full interior boat too

CONGRATS![/QUOTE]

The boat has a full five man suede and vinyl interior with stereo and all the options as well as a large plush half cabin.

Great points, plus I couldn't believe how much faster it was than the Skater Vee

OL SV43 was 139/140mph

Skater 399 Vee's best run was 126mph

Huge advantage for the OL, and the Skater looked much smaller on its runs!

That OL SV43 was a much larger boat, and went down that course perfectly. Even Bob Teague commented several times how impressive that run was, for a 43ft boat, and said it was be very hard for any Vee to beat that speed..

U have any pics of the boat OL40SVX?..
