I hope to be low 90's and maybe 95. Im not sure that I was setup rite/ drove it rite. I had over 25% prop slip. In the end I just want to boat every weekend and not too worried aobut my top speed.

Is that your humble way saying your still gonna stomp me? LOL

Just for the record and going back a few pages here; It was indeed the 171 mph boat that is presently for sale that I saw at the shop. I have verified that.

The two boats never ran so we will never know the winner??

What is the record for OL and Fountain at lets say Lake of the Ozarks runs. Which has a better record speed for a V hull?:confused:

Mike, you know i love ya, but who is focusing on new technology, selling boats, and going "real fast"?? I was in Kew West this yr, and until the OL broke down, it was spanking the pack (of fountains)... ps check out "thisistanks" new vid of the 50' cig..... that thing is sick

i fully agree and i have never been a fountain cheerleader at all but, if we are going to talk about the fastest v we all know who holds that record and until someone betters it the record belongs to Reggie. Mike is working hard to bring new things to the table and that is great I would be proud to own one.

im no expert, but i think the record holding fountain is a Skater laid up boat.... none the less, i think if OL had the time to make videos and sponsor some sort of sanctioned event, a few, (not just one) of their new V's, laid up by OL, the same way they sell them to the public, would smoke the thin laid up, ready to explode, particall board, skater (or fountain, see the thread about how thin the record holding boat is), might suprise us!!

i owned an X fountain race boat, and my old man won the worlds in 04 in an OL, that same OL still looks like it never raced, my fountain, and most fountain race boats, look spider cracked and ready to fall apart at a strong wind storm after racing... Reggie built them fast, maybe faster then most, but what he proved on the race course didnt match what he sold to the public, OL does
