the pic above brings back some old memories
guy here in Houston back in late 80s-90 had a 24 with trip ported 260s on nitrous for drags on the river boat hopped at any cruising speed but when under full power flew dragging no hull like in that pic 2 out of 3 passes would get out of shape,,,but that 1 pass was awesome when it stayed straight and not too high |
Speaking of triples...........
I rode in Bill Schiltz 23 Eliminator w/ triple 2.4's up on Crosslake, MN, several years ago. Wicked beast for sure - he buried a 120 MPH Nordskog speedo as I was yelling to hit the "down button" - I don't think he heard me or cared for that matter - LOL. MDS |

24 triple will be bad!!! I dunno if it's enough for a 21 twin though lol

I guess will find out if the triple 24 happens haha |
not going to argue,,,,,
24 skater was only 1600 lbs window a 21 drives better with a single a 24 drives better with twins overpowering any of these hulls they fly but rough water conditions as they were designed for goes down the drain fast is good but offshore only is fast in the rough,,,,,,, |
If everything works out right we will be able to do some solid testing of a 21 twin and a 24 triple come spring time haha. The picture of the trip 24 jumping out of the water looks awesome!
