The speedster had twin 525's if I remember right. Dan did a great job on the boat, it is the best looking 32' out there!

Dan, do you have any stats on your 2013 Kaama? I saw some pics of it facebook and I'm just curious as to what exactly it is.

Its based on the 43 Larry Smith Scarab 48 long 6.7 liter cummins diesel that put out 550hp and 1250 ft lbs torque we run it thru the trimax surface drives with dual rudders the boat weights in at about 13,000 lbs and run 82 MPH. With full cabin. Not bad for stock diesels.

101 with 525 is impressive. Nice job and great looking boat.

In looking at the shootout information it looks like the boat was the only one in its class. Not saying its not a nice boat, just saying it won its class by being the only one in it.
