The Skater V would smoke both the Fountain and the Outerlimits but Peter does not need to get involved in these pissing matches to sell his boats.

The 525's have already been done in the kilo last season (race boat), Fountain set the record I thought?

I guess you cold measure the wetted surface on both and I bet there the same .I know my Hustler is the same wetted surface when sitting side by side.
Its still a broken record ,they will not do a equal power to weight test!

I am sure if somebody went to them and said build me a race boat and I will never ask for any help from you they would be happy to, but that isn't how it works. If I was going to get into boat racing it would be who is going to help the most and cost me the least.

42 GTX w/ 525's... i don't know if they even built one of these w/ 525
35 Lighting w/ 575's runs 103 powerboat mag test...
35 Lighting w/ 525 90+ (fountain website)
38 Lighting w/ 525 88+ (fountain website)
38 Lighting w/ 575 92 powerboat test (ben robertson driving)
42 Lighting w/ 525 85+ (fountain website)
