I'm hoping it runs in the mid 80's John.
Thanks for the compliment man.

I watch that video often.

I somehow knew you did. That's good encouragement to keep you going with those long never ending hours. I know how that goes. I think you'll see an honest mid 80's plus easily. As you know you gotta drive the boat and not let it drive you. That's the fun part though. Just not going to be the kind of boat you tell a drunk buddy to go ahead and take it for a spin. That's a good thing though.... lots of time and money invested.

Killer looking boat man!!!! Love it!!! I'll just repeat what everyone else has said on here, That boat will want a Mirage/Mirage +. One of my good friends has a 24x7 (Superboat) and that thing was bear to handle with a Bravo 1 on it. He also tried a -2 Sportmaster and gained nothing. Right now he has an old school solid hub 29 Mirage and has seen a best of 96mph with it. I have been in the boat at 94mph and it was really stable, and it never scared me......until I drove it!!! These are the antithesis of a drivers boat!!! I only hit mid to upper 70's before I backed her down and handed the sticks back to him. My hats off to anybody that drives one of these over 80mph!!
