Outerlimits 29SV is supposed to run right at 100 with a 600/Bravo XR setup. I would assume with a big power twin turbo setup and a stout drive it should easily hit the number you're shooting for. Ofcourse, you also didn't list a budget, and if you're buying new, this one might bust any budget you might have.

A small V that runs 100+ will probably have some expensive insurance as well!

Sunsation made some 32 Dominators with singles. Ive been mid 90's in a twin big block Dominator, on river chop it handled fine at those speeds.

Superboat Y2K (30'), Never been in or around one but have heard the handle well.

I 2nd the OL 29SV if you have unlimited budget.

+1 on Superboat y2k... stepped hull, super light weight, comfortable sit down design. a buddy of mine has one with a mild pump gas 572 that does mid 90's, throw boost at it and get upwards of 1000hp and you will Definately be hitting your speed goals. Those boats are F**kin sexy too!!!!

Vector 28... would be capable of running in 6 footers if you ever choose to later as well. :-)

30 Phantom is also a good choice. Mine ran 80 with a bone stock carbed hp500. There was one running around with 850hp that went 113. Might want to look at a RAGE also.

Very Impressive boat!!

Couple more things i should have mentioned..... A new OL is way out of my range although it is a really sick boat!! I guess my budget would be $40k - $75kish for a used boat. It would just depend on the right fit. I also prefer a stand up boat but will definitely consider a cool sit down. Thanks again for all the info! T

The Checkmate is a Stand-up boat that will fit your budget. Also has a nice size cabin.

Kunkel's Auto & Marine in Ohio has also built a 300 Checkmate Convincor with a procharged 572 and Imco drive that is running around that 120 MPH speed also. Beautiful boat in person! Check300's boat was amazing as well!
