That is a big speed difference from what others are seeing with lots more power.

We have another client with a glass 42 and 1100s running 127.

I am by no means a Fountain cheerleader but a 35 with 525's will run 101. Not Reggies claimed 105 but still impressive.

The boat does have the Whipple upgrade kit and it does run 116mph (I was in the boat). It was dialed in here at the factory. The boat is in great shape and is very fast. Anyone who is looking for a 42 this is a great one to buy. FYI the boat weighs 10,500lbs.

Haha, this is the real question that needs to be asked! OL's do run fast, but I imagine this boat has the Whipple Stage 2 kits on it! Nothing wrong with installing the kits, they really make the stock engine come alive!
