I know terry is over 100+ now and his boat is awesome. He's going to be at the shootout this year and he'll be dialed in. We are going to have a big nortech turnout this year at the loto shootout. you'll see every model they make there. Can't wait to get our first 36 supercat with 900's. jim midwest performance marine.

The 43 in every aspect probably is a better boat. Have fun boating

My ears were burning while I was on vacation.
The BT at the shootout was a stripped down flat deck running twin 1050 HP (300 more than me) and 2000 lbs lighter. And Hering sent me the wrong props. No excuses but not really and apples to apples comp. What really stunk for me is that I was in the same class as the 42 GTX "Can you hear me now" 9200 lbs w T 1500's.
Oh well, as long as we look good....

To answer your question...HELL YEAH!!

I would love a 43'V. I think that boat has some of the best lines I've ever seen. It would look pretty good sittin' next to Gary's boat at the docks to boot.

I just built a 43 v and have never been so impressed every time I use it I built a 90 mph sea ray and love it!!!

I ran terrys 43 it had twin 900 nor tech motors and at 98 mph terry asked me to take it easy so I built my own with tripple 625's runs around 90 gps with 200 gals of fuel and 4 to 6 passengers ask the others to do that .
