Dont forget there have already been a few pontoon boats running over 100mph..
Like I have always said with enough money and hp ANYTHING can be made fast.. I would imagine besides having a lot of hp this CC will also cost a LOT of money thus confirming my theory.... :) There are many old "resin buckets" with big power out there running the same speeds and slower but yet get priased by many here. So not sure your point. It takes HP to get moving no matter what. That is not some new found magic of today's time. |

Hey Pete, We haven't met yet but gonna be in Key west with my girlfriend from the 14th till the 22nd this month. Would be great to meet up. Staying at The Southern Most Hotel on the Beach. When you going
We leave Miami on the 16th and we will be there for a few weeks will pm you our phone number would be good to meet up. Peter |
My point is I dont find it surprising at all that a new boat with the latest design and technology , 1600hp and a price tag of I am guessing a half million dollars runs 97mph.. That is all..
:D

:D Anything new cost a LOT of money, not sure why that is a point of anything. A new wake board boat clears well past 6 figures .....no new or shocking insight there. |

I don't believe that particular boat has a hard top. While this doesn't make it immune to all the other safety concerns present at those speeds for any boat at least It doesn't have additional lift created by the hardtop.
Maybe you could drive a new product for Nortech! |

Agreed....his new ideas and boat are fun to watch the results in. |
The cc is not here at Miami beach marina yet but this 420 Monte Carlo just pulled up with the diesels guy said he had it up to 75mph and gets 2 mpg going 60.

Hi!
Here is a picture from The Hull Truth Forum of a Nor-Tech with the new engines.. What we see are the new Sportmaster lower units. And from the picture they seem to be "coned" HD 5,4 inches Verado Poseidon lower units. I was hoping for 4,8 dia Sportsmasters. However, the standard HD 5,4 dia lower unit has a "blow out" limit around 85 mph. So a Sportsmaster will be good for the fast ones Cheeers, Toffen |
