I raced a couple with twin 2.4's back in the 80's....... in offshore races (gasp!)......... and they ran in the low 80's back then..... 70's with a fuel load and "designated victim"....... I drove and throttled ...so some poor soul had to hang on and pray. I remember one started crying in a race in the lower bay of Manhattan....... Of course I immediately slowed down
...... NOT!
Another time a separate victim laughed the whole way through a race..... I thought he was fine until I realised he was still laughing hysterically..... an hour after the race ended.
He may still be laughing today........

Here's a couple more things to increase your general boating knowledge.........
This is called a tunnel hull....early model. Only one guy drove it, throttled it and turned it......... engines rarely ripped off in turns...but they back flipped a lot....oh and by the way...... It will make a uturn and be gone while your Donzi is approaching the entrance buoy....and it has...no steps.
