Thanks for all the compliments. My family and I are very happy to be a part of the Spectre family. We are very excited that Spectre is using our demo boat in their advertising. As the official Gulf Coast dealer, I can answer your questions about pricing or questions on the Spectre line of boats. Just send me a PM.

I just got my case (25) of Powerboat magazines in and the boat looks great. I just want to thank Tony, Jay, and John at Spectre for making this happen. I am very pleased to be a part of the Spectre Team. I also want to thank Ryan, Jason and every one at Powerboat magazine for there hard work in these bad time's. Here is a look at the cover.

Thanks to all !!!!!!!!

Congrats on the cover! The boat looks awesome!! Keep up the great work Spectre!

It sure looks and runs great! Your thread was one of the reasons I bought my current boat.

What props were you running when you hit 104? Have you done any testing with different props/set-ups to see if theres more speed in the boat? Again awesome boat!!

Thanks
Dan

Glad to hear that the thread helped you. I hope you are happy with the new boat.
Dan I sent you a PM back.

I noticed PB said in it's test that the boat ran 104 at 6300. The soft limiter on a 300xs is set at 6k. Have these boxes been altered?

The reason for the soft limiter at 6k (On the 300xs/250xs) is more for quick reving times (i.e. props comming out of the water, or way under propped). If the ECM thinks that the engine revs to quickly around 6k it will start to go into full rich (Fuel) mode. In a normal top speed type run at WOT the RPMs are climbing slow enough to allow the engine to run up to 6300.

The Motors on this boat are all stock. The 104 MPH we ran was on the rev-limiter. The boat still has a little more in it like Johnny T said in PB.
Thanks,
Tommy

We are doing the Patriot Poker Run next week on Saturday September 25, 2010 at Lake Pontchartrain. Hope to see you there.
