Ok.... Its not my boat, but my Fountain sure likes trim and I have a couple of steps on it. I have have driven a few outerlimits with four steps and they also liked some trim. I am not calling you a liar by any means. I was not there, just stating what it looks like in the video.

Haha I was just throwing out numbers like everyone else usually does. LOL
Honestly I don't know if it ever did and can't remember the actual top speed. Pretty sure it did more than 151mph since that was a gas pump tune and was having water pressure issues which later got fixed. its been awhile I my memory isn't what it used to be.
Actually I just asked Dustin and the fasted it went was 154mph and had more in it. I believe if someone wanted to they could get that boat over 160mph.

Boat is 16yrs old, we have modified the bottom multiple times. Everything with the motors (except machine work) and dialing in has been done by us. Boat was originally rigged by Dan MacNamara @ Archer. The kilo vee record at the time had just been set by the 42' Fountain Ocean Spray @ 134mph. Times have sure changed......
Has been a fun project with my dad over the years!
