Yes Bob's pleasure boat is his old race boat, no one has tried to claim other wise. That is why it is listed for sale as a 2008 model. Not sure why it would matter as the race boats have the same bottom as the pleasure boats. It might be a little heavier do to the conversion.
Also it is still a Rudder boat. That is simple because Bob likes the feel of a Rudder boat. It doesn't make it any faster, in fact some think it slows acceleration because of the lack of trim range. I really don't know what it had as far as power for the shootout, and I would bet that no one on here KNOWS for sure either. They might have ideas, but Randy and Bob would never leak that info. I do know of several things done prop and rigging wise that helped increase the speed dramatically. :party-smiley-004:
I'll let everyone else figure out which boat is fastest. I've got to figure which MX bike will make my kids faster.lol:ernaehrung004:

Yes it is, which is why I was hoping Dave might see this and give us the real story.
Being a little biased, I tend to believe it. Given that he seemed more excited about the piston boat than the tubine boat back then. And knowing the tubine went well over 200 many times.
