New 30 Testing In Florida

Was Out In Florida Testing The New 30 With 300xs Outbourds. Unbilevable Boat So Impressed Had To Buy One. This One Had The Standard Deck. The Handls Like A Bigger Boat Night And Day Differance From My 28. The New Motors Run Nice The Fuel Milage Is Unreal. A Plus With Gas Going Up Ocean Outbord In Long Island Has Them For Sale Nice Boat Jim

No I Have The 300x Not As Stout As Mine But Then Again Its A Bigger Boat. But The Perfomance Trade Off For Fuel Milage I Think Is Going To Be Well Worth It. They Took The Boat Out With A Half Of Tank Of Fuel. Johny T Did 4 High Speed Runs Then He Did Eceleration Test.
Then Bob Teage Did The Same Thing. Then We Took The Boat Out For A Wide Open Blast 2 Way Pass And Burned A 1/4 Tank In All That Testing .just Unreal Please Excuse The Speeling Have Not Figured Out Spell Check Will Do That Soon

Great news on the performance, handling and fuel economy. Would not expect anything less from Skater. Can not wait until mine comes, (T/Merc 300 XS), getting close now. Going to MI to check on rigging in next 2 weeks.
