Like others have said 80s is not to much of a problem in the prowlers bt at that speed with that hull its a drivers boat...Mr noise pollution if you didnt come off as such a azz with me on my mph i would for sure have got in touch with you and had giving you all the specs on my boat.Butttttt thats not the case.Im very sorry about you not getting the speed out of your boat that you want.lbut thats no reason to pick on me .I also have had a very hard time getting my boat to where it is now and it would not be there without the help i got from a few friends.trust me for what i have tied up in my boat i could have had morgan build me a new 277 and have money left over.haha i love to learn the hard way.So with that being said good luck to you and im sure you will get your boat in the 80s but it will take a few more dollars and some time but you will get it.

how true after I bought my konrad ace and had my blower motor built, a fellow boater lowered the price of his 05 800hp 31footer for what I payed for them. and I didn't have the saber yet. but I couldn't afford to give away my stuff for his. in the long run my drive is better motor too. boats should be about the same, but I have 300 plus more hp.

Mr Sonic, Im sorry if you thought i was an ass. But If I read your post correctly you are pushing 50 more hp than me. I just don't see how you got 10 mph out of that unless there is a big weight difference between our boats. If I had the time, I would take you up on the ride offer. I did talked to Brett at the Miami show this year. I love the boat, but don't think its worth putting any more money into. A lot of boats out there that would easly run in the mid 80's with the same power.

My boat has had a few different set ups.A handful of different engines is been super charged injected carbed you name it.It didnt come easy for me.For what i spent on the motor/drive i could have bought a older boat that was twice as fast.But that would be no fun.Theres alot more to a boat then just the engine also.Tabs,drive i.t.s etc.

Sonic, I would like to talk to you to pick you brain. If we're rining close to the same power,I'm no where close to your speed. Maybe we can exchange #'s throught email.
