Thumbs up Statement and Mercury just out standing!

Got a call from Nick asking me if I wanted to go and test runwith Invitation Only the 42V with 1100 merc. So I was all over it and went down to the water with Nick. I wanted to see the diffrence between the 1075 and 1100's and wow those 1100 had so much torque and power to them, they were insain. We ran the boat gradually up to 5700rpm's and we were running 132mph and came off, we need to adjust a water pickup. We were gping to go back out, but was getting dark, so called it quits. Can't wait to see what this boat runs and with the correct set of props . Another great job done by Statement Marine!

Thumbs up

I have some pics of this boat from 4 weeks ago. I think people would be amazed at what stage the boat was in and to find it was ready for testing this week. As I understand it, the company is running double shifts with their employees. God Bless them to be this busy in such a poor economy.

I hope I get permission to post the pics. I think it would be great to show how much goes into building these boats and so much of the rigging you will never see once the boat is complete...
