That was us! Yea that ride back was interesting for sure! We stuffed it once and got soaked. Mostly my fault as I throttled back too soon on the wave before a big one… oops! Was trying to stay on top of them.

The boat is a 1980 martini SS with 1000hp blower motor. The 7 meter part confuses me also as the boat measures 25ish.

That's badass Joe!
FWIW 7 M = 22.97' I guess they rounded up 3 feet if it actually measures 26.

Right it’s strange. Event the title says 26’ and 7 meter for model. It seems almost 2’ longer than my buddies with 24’ sunsation rockets. So it’s basically a stretched 24/7 hull.

12meter joe 09-22-2021 12:40 PM

Then there’s this original documentation. Looks like the specs say 7.62 meters so I guess its a 25' boat. Wonder why they didn't just call it an 8 meter.
