Re: Fastest Nor-Tech V
One of the fastest full cabin loaded Nortech 43 V's out there is in the classifieds right now. 120 mph at Lake X. It isn't lite either, built like Trond builds them....Strong and to last!

The boat went on to consistently run 140, and on one memorable run to Key West, outside in the open ocean in 4-footers, blew away a 40ft Skater that was supposed to have been a 150mph boat. Probably was just good driving, but the boat was consistently about 140.
And yes, technically there was a Warbird V. Or maybe not, depending on your opinion. After the 50' cat (Warbird IV), I went back to the Warbird III, but with new motors, new rigging, new paint, and new instruments. Y'all can opine all you want, but it was my boat, and my money, and I choose to say that there was a Warbird V! So until you pay the bills, kindly keep your opinions to yourselves. Thanks, James.

Re: Fastest Nor-Tech V
Ithink there is no new input I believe danger zone is now the record holder with twin 1075's at 140 mph but just refitted with nor tech 1150's waiting for sea trial.Unfortunately a new cat called ballistic with undisclosed power will probably push 200 mph?There is no other builder on the planet that can compete with nor tech period!!!!
