Yes 1200 or 1300 hp. It was used for speed runs and a few Poker Runs. Boat was like new when I bought 2 years ago and still looks great. Blueprinted bottom and the big power and it set a record at the LOTO shootout of 162 mph with a top speed of 170. Worlds fastest 32. Now it is the worlds best looking 32 with bullet proof speed.

I have owned a 30 Motion cat with triple O/B's. It was fast and the wow factor was cool with triples, but this 32 with I/O power is far nicer and just as fast. too may issues with O/B's breaking parts. The ride is MUCH better with the weight of I/Os. The funny thing is at Poker Runs nobody would give the eggbeaters any respect, yet have a couple 525's under the hatch and everyone drools. This boat would cost $500k to build new.

Triple what?? 260or 280 ? I would never would have considered a 32 back then or any other cat with those timebombs , never ! Again I hear nothing but good things about the new 300 Opti and yes the dealers say they make the old non DFI motor obsolete. I have always ran IO power in my race boats , looking forward to great fuel economy , less noise , and 100 mph with 620 hp ( 2-300 opti , 310@ the prop x 2 )

No , it's all good !! I'm just poor and a OB 32 Skater is all that I can afford !!! I paid 23k for complete boat fully rigged and super nice triple axle trailer minus power . I do all my own work and should be around 55 k when done and I will have new Opti's , I think that is a good # for when done a almost new boat .

As far as the 300 xs I blew one in 26hrs, going to Lauderdale monday for my new powerhead. Good thing for Warranty
I do enjoy burning 28gph @ 90mph
