So you told an owner with a 34 with 3 motors that your boat could go anywhere the 34 could go...? i believe this, it might go there 2 hours after and bang your brains around but sure, i bet you could...just seems a little odd.

Be safe and use good judgement getting to 100 i am sure its possible.

I wouldn't think a 34 center console with three 250 mercs could do more then 75-80 , is this not correct ?

not sure, but the extra 10 feet will help, no matter how fast you decide the boat goes, a longer boat will run better in rough seas, and you did state that you could go anywhere a 34 could go...so math suggests a 24 in 6-8 footers will most likely be slower then a 34 in 6-8 footers, it will run anywhere but just get there a little after...

I have seen and been on 38 senter consoles with 3 motors to 90. I have been on 23 center consoles with 2 motors do well into the 80s...its all relative.
good luck

Apparently you dont know occjoe it doesnt matter how big the seas are we only touch every third wave any way, i think the last storm we had he was getting more air then the jet skis, and you would never know you were out the water ( **** i think i was behind him on a wakeboard lol

you all are missing the point....i am not doubting that the boat will go over big seas and perform well. Just a boat that is 34 feet will do in more comfort. Get over your egos and use science. A boat that gets more air isnt the faster boat. A boat that is in the water i.e props moving the boat is faster then the airborne boat...crapin freaks why do i even try

Its a handful and the boat has 28 Kplanes. Except Scarabman put them on backwards!!
Yup! Jo used to bug me about that every time I talked to him. Function over conventionality
