Jromy's 33 was stolen and stripped over a year ago and yes I believe it is the last 33 built. It is here in my shop waiting for it's rebirth... which is currently going in the Ilmor direction. The boat is still meticulous!

What kind of performance did the 38' with yanmar and arnesons have? That seems like it would be a sweet set-up.

Steve -- love to read this kind of stuff -- you're the man!

LOL hey thank you, it ran 81 + from the reports I got, That is all I would need to weekend in the Islands and then back on the fuel onboard.

I say yes.. the 33 as well, same situation..and while your at it do the 28..heck..I might as well open a boat co..cause it's so profitable..
I disagree. I bought my 33' because it didn't have steps. JROMY's boat had 525s in it and it ran 88 bone stock with no dialing in what-so-ever. That boat was rigged at John Tomlinson's, not PowerPlay and wasn't dialed in at all. I'm sure with some tuning it would have hit 90+ without much effort. It was one of the only if not the only 33 with sporty shorties and PowerPlay hadn't performed a set-up on it yet. Steve1, please correct me if I'm wrong but I know JROMY and his boat well. Plus it's going to do well in the slop, these aren't lake boats. My hull didn't come to life unless it was choppy out. If someone smokes me in the flat I could care less, I bought it for it's rough water performance and predictable handling.
