Hi!

Rib Cat is the current speed record holder from Copenhagen Denmark to Oslo Norway. The boat is designed by the original Hydrolift builder. The rib cat is powered by triple Merc Verado 350 sci. Top speed 128 mph.

And something totally different

Very cool thread. I've been to Narvik all the way up to Grovfjord on NATO ops with the Marines back in the 80's. Awesome country to visit!

The diff in speed from Hydro to outer limits is partially due to weight. The all carbon outerlimits is considerably lighter.
