I have a question.
Isn't an hour and 45 kinda slow? If its about 90 miles, and the boat can run over 130mph, it should be able to fast cruise at close to 100mph... jus' sayin. I was thinking it would be an hour tops if they pushed it and showed off a little. Am i wrong?

brentadkins 08-01-2015 01:39 PM

I am in agreement.... The seas must have been rough is all I can figure. My Cigarette can cruise at 90 without breaking a sweat, so I would figure this professional race boat would crush that??

i was told, 2'-3'...in a boat of that length and weight, that should be relatively smooth.

This whole event seemed a little lack luster. Ive been KW to havana on a 66 sport fish in less than 3 hours
No live video either?
