Testing to Resume on Sterling 1700-Powered Skater 388 in January
 

Finally, an update, http://speedonthewater.com/new-boats...n-january.html.

I spoke with Mike D'Anniballe of Sterling Performance this morning, and I may meet him in Louisiana when the boat is ready for a first-person account on speedonthewater.com.

I thought you said no more "speed" boat rides :evilb:

Damaged #6, is this a special purpose build? Doesn't take 5 months to find another one :angry-smiley-038:

wasn't there a huge argument about how everyone thought the 6 drives would be damaged with that much power

Matt,get ready for the ride of your life,had the pleasure of going for first test run with Mike in that boat and it was incredible!!!! Steve @ legacycustommarine.com

Matt, that boat will run over 100.. wasn't that your cutoff point?! lol

there is someone on here lurking that KNOWS everything about that boat and whats going on with it. he may chime in.

Outstanding memory, but my "cut-off point" depends on the driver, the conditions, the boat and my nerves that day. Could be 100, could be 120. Could be 80 with someone I don't know. (I've been pretty spoiled with drivers over the years.)

I want to feel the acceleration. As far as top speed goes ... I'll report the GPS recall.

Another good memory, but what I wrote was, "If I never break 100 mph in a boat again, I won't miss it. I'll be just fine."

As for what I'm willing to do, see the post above.

It's nice to be remembered. Thanks, Downtown.

Sure was. Most people , if I recall, had said they should have gone with Arnesons.

Ready for next summer
