Well with the portion of the top deck hanging on the crane, the other portion that was laying on the hull and some 5200 with a little TLC and you've got yourself a project boat....... on a serious note glad whomever it was survived the crash

That is definitely the boat's limit. My buddy had one with a 540 and a massive Pro-Charger. At 104mph, the ENTIRE boat lifted off the water and walked 10 feet to the side aka "prop walk". That was the last time they went for a top speed. He now has that motor in a 32' Sunsation single.

I wouldn’t feel real comfy sitting just inches in front of it either. Should have a titanium reinforced bulkhead. At that speed sitting in the back would be out of the question anyway.
