Nah, I do think my hull is considerably lighter then most others though. I think we should take our boats over to my buddies with the scale. I'm thinking I'm 400lbs lighter between platform and interior/rigging.
You certainly scared the crap out of me...

Just to let the rest of you in on a little joke that John likes to play. Dont ignore him when he is running behind you in his boat. I made that mistake, next thing I know he comes by in the 80's less than 8 feet away!! Felt like 2 feet. I know it was close enough to spray me.

Sounds good to me. Prop it out for top speed and give us some info. I may take mine out again this week without putting fuel in and see what it will do. Cant have more than 50 gallons in it right now, probably a touch less than that.

I don't think there is and 2 Kryptos that are the same. I have looked @ 3 they are very different, Stinger configuration, the way they are boxed in. Mikes has 4 full length all the way forward. So there is no way that any 2 will be even close to the same weight. by the way my rear seat is 70#. Mine was about 4800# and had about 1/3 tank in it. I bet its a lot heaver with the Procharger, efi stuff, SCX, fuel system. I bet its over 200# more now. I think I will take it to the scale with a full tank, then I know exactly how much fuel weight to subtract out of the total.

You are right about that. Seems like everyone that I see pictures of have different stringer setups.

Went out in Jones Inlet. WOW, it was rough. There would be 2's to 2.5 footers and than all the sudden BAM 4 foot rollers out of nowhere. I got caught TWICE today, LOL.

Damn, that was wild. You got lucky on that one. Almost a hook and roll. Either that or it was just your mad skills...

I must admit that you do seem to be pretty quick on the throttle. Better than me, not that that is saying much. Seems the only time I am any good is running hard. Cruising I always get out too early and back in too late.

He posted something in a different thread a while back stating that his ITS failed/broke, causing a hook. It certainly isnt the hull that caused it.

As far as i know it is the same hull, but you would need to ask him.

That was luck. The water is tricky around that area. You'll cruising nicely and all the sudden you see these spaced out rollers come out of nowhere.... and you're ****ed. Very tricky water because you have three bodies of water meeting up. We gotta get you and john down here to new york, take a cruise to fire island or NYC
