Default 42, 44, 46 Length question

42 listed as 42' 5" Simple enough

44 listed as 44'4" Has a bustle over the drives, appears to fully cover a #6 drive which is about 4' long. Is the boats running surface ~40'?

46 listed as 45'6" Has a shorter bustle, is it close to the 42' bottom with the updated 5 step bottom?

Basically, what is each running surface length?

What about cabins on all 3, similar length and headroom on all 3. (seen 5' 10" listed for 42 and 46, 6' listed for 44 on fastboats add)

Thanks, DK

None of the boats have close to the same bottom. Nothing stretched or anything like that. The 46 hull length is 44 and change. Fred/animalhouse will give the specifics on the 44 since thats his baby. The 44 hull I believe is close to 43ft without the bustle.

Fred?
Just curious about length vs. speed since they keep getting longer yet faster with same power.

I've got a buddy with a 44SL with 700's running around 114 if that helps.

A 42 with 700's runs right around 106-108. The 44 runs 112-114. The 41 ran 114. A 46 has never been built with twins. The triple 700 46 ran 120. The 43 with 700's runs 118. These are all stock numbers.

Jeff's 44SL isn't stock 700's and it runs 114 GPS. Must be the driver

His boat would go faster out here in the salt............and it could be the driver! Jeff only has the rev limiter raised. Around 112 pure stock.

Whipples stage 1 isn't stock, adds 90 hp according to whipples website. I'm sure 114 on the 44 is with stage 1.
