Fastest Stepped Bottom Design????
#3
Answer: whichever one you throw off an 800 ft. cliff. They typically do not go that fast without power.
If you want some type of quantitative answer, you need to set some specifications:
1) A HP spec
2) A length spec
3) A material spec (fiberglass, epoxy, CF)
4) Production hull or custom/race hull?
5) Water conditions (flat or rough, and if so--how rough)
5) Still water (lake) or moving water (river)
6) GPS speed, radar speed, or trap speed
7) Kilo type run (how fast in a given distance) or unlimited length parameter
8) Is this a race or a poker run? (my favorite)
9) Type of drive spec (Bravo, Surface, SSM, etc.)
10)
11)
12)
There are many threads like this in past, and they just turn into pissing contests. See what you can dig up on the Fiore/Fountain battles of the past.
PS: This type of question is best asked in November.

Has anyone beat this?
Team Fountain dominated the SBI, APBA, OSS and European P-1 offshore racing circuits capturing World and National Championships all V-bottom classes. As if that wasn’t enough, we also set World Speed Records in SBI and APBA Superboat Vee Unlimited, SBI Superboat Vee and the SBI and APBA/UIM World’s Fastest Vee Bottom Record at a blistering 171.883 MPH.
