Great job to Joe at Hustler and Eddie at Young Motors..excellent speeds ....great motor and awesome bottom design on that 39...best riding 39 out there.

What gear ratio does that boat have?
A 1.5:1 gives it 0% slip
A 1.36:1 gives it 10% slip
A 1.25:1 gives it 17% slip
w/6000rpm, 35prop, 132mph
Sounds awesome either way.

Not bad, but the 43 outerlimites ran 143 with 1075's

good job!

1.35 gear. About 11%

Which one? I'm just curious. This boat has a VERY spacious cabin. I'm sure the OL is quite a bit lighter than the Hustler. Regardless, that's fast. Outerlimits builds a hell of a boat.

This boat will bust 140 once all the dialing in is done. We never actually got the engines wide open. I had one engine going a touch lean over 5700 and I didn't want to push it. Every time I fly with my tuning stuff, TSA goes through my bags. They apparantly took my data cable out and neglected to put it back in. I could not make any changes to the engines, so I stopped them short of WOT to be safe. It didn't really matter since we didn't have props large enough any way. They would have turned the 35's over 6500 rpm. THe engines made peak power about 6100, so there really wasn't much sense in turning them that high.

This was the one and only time the boat has hit the water. Once we get the props and I can do some tweaking to the ecms, we'll go wring it's neck for all it's worth and report back.
Thanks,
Eddie

Congrats, sounds like its got alot more, ol was white blue yellow at shootout last year

Apples and orange, what is your point ? They weren't saying that the boat was the fastest deep V, 43' and under...

Was that the canopied boat?
