Default 29 Hustler rocket

I had the chance to ride in a 29 hustler at the Miami show last week and I am very impressed. The boat they had on the water was powered by Ilmor 725 paired w and Indy drive. First the lines on this boat are really cool. Second as we drove it through some snotty water coming from all directions it was rock solid at 80 Mph. It was tough from my position to see the tach but think we were just over 5000 Rpm at 80mph so there was plent left in it. Another impressive aspect of the ride was how level the bow stayed as we came on plane. Came on plane quick and w this power pkg it accelerated nicely. Im pretty sure I remember them telling me this is 4300 pd boat as dry weight.

It s a nice piece ,I got a complete photo shoot from the european importer of the build as it coming to europe after the show really nice to see how the build it .
I try to get a look when its in europe to see in person would be a good replacement for my 32 just a little shorter an much lighter then my twin diesels.

how do you think it rides if you compare it to a 32 whit twins ?

Very nice! Thanks for the cabin pix's too. Cracks me up how few mfgs have cabin shots in their literature or websites.

That boat has some cool options... the back seat is very interesting.
I saw the pricing sheet that was posted at the show.
Is that correct w/ the mentioned setup?

No, the pricing sheet shows the base price only.

The boats displayed in water and at the booth had different engines and options and are more expensive.
