I realize this is a GPS run but look at the water he is making the run in.

I know this guy by association with the man that installed these engines.

Kenny has worked on this run for at least three years to my knowledge.

Yet no one has even mentioned it. I always thought this was the go to site for offshore performance.

Anyone?

BTW this run did not take place on some pissant lake. the run was made on Galveston Bay a body of water known for it's rogue waves caused by the huge cargo ships that ply the Ship Channel
Mark,

Well said, and kudos for posting this thread. This team is certainly long overdue in their recognition of an amazingly well developed effort.

They know how to put the numbers on the board, and that speaks volumes.

Bob

Congrats on the speed run Kenny! Very impressive. I saw your boat run in Key West last week while I was testing. Can you get in touch with me please ([email protected]), I have a proposal for you?! Vee

Kenny doesn't frequent Offshore Only - but I'm a close friend and have extensive knowledge of the boat - We re-rigged the old girl for the Sterlings.

Feel free to email me @ [email protected] and I can get you two in touch.

Here are just SOME of the pics of the rebuild...

6850 ... On 116 octane....

If you flip the switch and change the pulley for 110 - it drops it to 6500.
