All I know is the OL SV29 ran 98mph with 600hp in the Desert Storm poker run in full pleasure trim with five guys. I was one of the guys and I weigh 280lbs so it wasn't like we were all horse jockeys :-)

We also had three ice chests and a ton of gear for the weekend. In fact we even had two anchors and sand spikes because I thought the boat didn't have any on board and I put another set on. So literally it was a very heavy load and still went 98. Oh and by the way the 98 was in big chop coming from every direction.

I can't wait to see what it will be in Race trim but I am pretty sure it will crush any other 29 V bottom out there.

Just my opinion, another ass-whole.. :-) LOL

Jesus, wtf are you his lawyer...

I just thought about this...you're telling me Pete has some special way to lay up a 39 that will bring the weight down under the 4k and change the OL is with a single engine...

I'm sorry but you just sound STUPID...

that'll be a great boat in a rough sea...

12 years, ranting and raving, he doesn't care to have a boat from apparently the Messiah of all performance boating? Who is this guy?

"Dan from Skater" haha I love Dan..but this is...honestly laughable...

Whatever/whoever is included in any comparison I want to see them run in some 3-4s and have sealed engines with locked boxes. :party-smiley-004:

He's earned the title...:thankyouthankyou:

Hoefully Peter gets the weight out of the 39, but builds it better than he laid up the honey party boat. This is one race in europe, in which the SV 40 & SV 43 Outerlimits competed in several seasons with zero stress cracks or failures

Finally....I was waiting for this....

Watch, spiderman will disappear now...

What about all the outer limits that flipped and broke in europe? What's Nigel his boat spun and flipped in a straight line.

FYI, 143 mph in a v bottom is a great accomplishment. I know the boat, and he was running big power, however I would be remissed if I didn't remind everyone that OL is running 144+ on the rev limiters in (2) 44's with 1300 HP, 147 in the 44 with Arnesons & 140+ in a 44 with stock 1075's.

All very imoressive when put into perspective that we are comparing a very light 39'v versus 44' vee's with full cabins and a/c, generator, and 600+ lbs in stereo equipment alone.

Ironically the boat that flipped in sweden sustained virtually less structural damage (other than damage sustained from lifting it out of the water full of pure swedish salt water) than the above mentioned skater. (His damage was not the result of a collision or a roll over, that was just running.

Take the mold they built the fountain from. Build a pleasure boat. Same weight and power. Run them. Who wins wins. Period. Some boats do things better than others. It comes down to personal preference.
