Outerlimits SC 37 Ready For Newport Close-Up
 

Outerlimits couldn’t have delivered a prettier boat to showcase this weekend, https://www.speedonthewater.com/oute...d-for-newport/

I wonder how fast it will go. 150?

I don’t think 450Rs would push anything that fast unless you built a 25’ fly weight cat.

The motors don't have the rpm/gearing to even get to 150, no matter what boat they were on. With a 1.60 gear and 6,450rpm rev limiter, they'd have to spin 40" pitch props to the rev limiter with basically 0% slip to attain 150mph - which isn't possible. The fastest of the fast of the 450R boats I've heard of are right around the 140 mark with 1 person, no fuel, on a cold morning, etc., etc., etc..

This is a nice looking setup, glad to see they finally put a windshield on one that you can read the water conditions through - every SC37 I've seen built so far has had a windshield so darkly tinted that it would be impossible to clearly through. I made the mistake of installing a windshield that was too dark on one of my boats - never again!

140 twin 450Rs
 

What Where and.When did this happen? More info will be appreciated

Thank you

The 36 Victorys were touching 140 two years ago when they were being imported. Optimum conditions, not "every day" numbers.

Thanks for the info brother I’m going to check that out!

new 38' DW is running 137

The 37 Outerlimits runs 132+ and is a lot bigger boat overall than a 36 Victory, 38 Doug Wright, or MTI. It would be like comparing a 40 Skater to a 40 MTI, they’re not even in the same realm size wise…

I have a buddy with a new DW32/450R setup that says high 130s/140 are attainable with big props and nothing in the boat/ideal conditions. Real world numbers for all of these new bigger (34' and up) 450 cats are in the high teens/low 120s w/ normal loads - I have a few friends with MTI 340/390 and a Skater 368. I've never had one (including DW 36s and DCB M37s during poker runs) stay with my Skater 36/700 rig as we roll by them at high 120s/low 130s. And the minute it get's lumpy, we've got them covered by an additional 10-20mph, as there's just no comparing a 6,500# outboard rig to a 9,500# inboard Skater in the rough.
