No speed demon here but a hell of a wave crusher. No complaints 69MPH and starts everyday.

It depends on how many Manatees I can hit to give me air-time.


Foul.. You should be able to hit just under 60. I topped out at 58.8 on GPS with a 1/4 tank and one other person on board. I have a stock 454 mag.

So far 82MPH..That's with the trailer being pulled by my Dodge Dually. Can't wait to see what she does in the water!

Still trying props but hit 66 with 4 200lb men and 1/2 tank of fuel on a day when there was not even a ripple on the water.
5400rpms 1.65 and 24p Bravo 1 4 blade.Have a 25p Mirage will try this weekend.Also I think I missed my x-dimension so I will raise it up next week.Here is the boat the first time it hit the water.That speed was on GPS not a great one but I guess it cannot be wrong although people have old me to try another GPS.
