Default Fountain 38TE with 557 7marine outboards

I saw one of these going down I75 headed south in sarasota on friday..... Does anyone know any details on how that boat performed? It was maybe headed to that little boat show at marina jacks?

That's 7 Marine's test boat. It's a twin
They are still fine tuning it.

At least they are finally testing on a boat that is known to be fast unlike those pig intrepids. Any plans to put some on the Nortech CC's?

Our pig intrepid is 37ft with a 12 foot beam, weighs 20k lbs, is fully enclosed, still runs 60mph with triple 275 verados and the cockpit air on keeping everyone cool with a drink in their hand, listening to music because there is no wind. I dunno about you but I think that is pretty damn good. Then when your day is over you have a real enclosed shower with a separate vanity and toilet, not some half a$$ed wash down/toilet/sink area like all these other builders......
