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

really,and danny didn't brag about it,then i doubt it happened.plus if it did,then ol has a boat faster than their own cat.because i know how fast the cat was going up to key west w/ 1400's and funny,it was on the rev limiters too.but i believe the guy who gave me that tid bit.
As for the V-bottom, I happen to also know how fast it will go, I've personally been in the SV43 at over 160+mph and I know for a fact it went 178mph with more to go.

the sv43 with1075's ran 139-140 its posted by dan and on youtube and in the outerlimits section of OSO.. the sv43 with the 1375 and 1425's in it ran 148-150 as iam close friends with the engine builder who built those motors... the outerlimits cat that had juiced up 1820's also built by the same builder ran 178mph(motors were turned down and rev limiter set at 7400rpm) all fact not internet fiction

Where do you come up with this stuff? You know how fast the cat was going with 300 gallons of fuel, 6 people on a 100deg day and conservative setup? I was in the boat, I know how fast we were going, how fast we could go on that day and how fast it will go when we wanted to go faster.
