your buddy with the 650's should learn how to drive because our boat with 500efis (470 hp) with 4 people just about touches 70 maybe 68-69. sorry. i have GPS to confirm it.




Yet another sub 10k boat. Ok...we are back to comparing weight and not steps.



3 flat bottom cigarettes just sold in the past week. must be a weak market. and to clarify, i am not arguing the t/s boats are 10% faster...but that is inclusive of being lighter, etc. it just doesnt have to do with steps.

Does your boat hop over 70mph? With your logic, why doesn't cig build a straight bottom with lighter materials and shorter drives if there's no difference with steps. After all, straight bottoms are better in rough water, according to straight bottom owners. Have you ever ridden in a stepped boat?

Twin steps do not porpoise at any speed or any water conditions
