34' Great Boat - No Bullsh*t
Today was the first day in two years I had been in what was my father's 34' Phantom. Will Smith (Phantom) and Innovation Marine (new 540 cubic inch Dart/MerCruiser EFI engines) put the boat back together after my father passed away last summer. It is outstanding! Boat runs strong, is a real sleeper, idles at 650 rpm-silent choice, spins 34" Bravo props, Ryan Beckley's graphics look great. It is truly a new boat.
It is a hot-rod. Thanks to all involved, I will post pictures early next week. |
Congrats Smarty!!!!!

This boat acclererates like mad now, a torque monster from 3000 rpm to 5000 rpm. A great drag boat from 45mp/50 mph, - on up to 90mph, "it gets with the program in a hurrry!" Flashbacks of the "Hairy Canary" (my father's previous boat a hot-rod 27" Magnum Sport) with respect to acceleration, in a much more stable platform. The Dart 540's work, thanks Dennis and his crew at Innovation Marine. |

I do love riding and driving "Pipe Dream". Even in the roughest water it handles great. Great rough water and fast boats.
Congrats. Sorry to hear about your father. |
