Re: whats the fastest single engine offshore V Hull??
 

The funny thing about this whole thing is that myself and John have done alot for Superboat boats directly and indirectly.John was with the world champion Extractor team years ago that was big press for JC and superboat.He also rigged for JC and not to mention his rig and setup experience have made Superboats shine over many years.I have built engines for many superboats that were world champs since 1993 [Extractor, RC marine].I built the motor for the fastest 24 at 102 and helped dial that boat in myself.JC came down and couldnt believe it.I have done numerous Y2K motors and i think i have the fastest 30 Y2K at 95.I have spent countless hours with Zul and his flat bottom 30 to get it to break 100.What credit do you have to Superboat and JC besides the negative ramblings you post on here.John and myself are not here to bash or discredit Superboat at all.It looks that way because whenever we come on this forum you are already on the defensive and YOU start your nonsense first.

Lol

Re: whats the fastest single engine offshore V Hull??
 

Great to be done with the BS! :drink:
So back to the question, Whats the fastest single engine "off-shore" V-bottom?
So no 30' Y2Ks over 100mph yet, but there are a couple of the older ones that have gone over 100.
I know that there were a couple of Kryptonites that cracked 100.
And we have heard of a few Activators that have run over 100.
How about Fountains? There have to be a few 27s or 29s running over 100.

Re: whats the fastest single engine offshore V Hull??
 

Thats what I was figuring. Reggie was so Gung Ho to have the record for the fastest twin engine offshore hull. I figured he would " TRY" to corner the market with the fastest single engine offshore hull record too. I've heard of some boats going into the upper teens. But does anyone keep records ?? APBA ?? Who ??

Re: whats the fastest single engine offshore V Hull??
 

Its Going To Take Some Big Wood To Beat 117. Nobody Is Putting Big Jc Power In Anything But Activators. Not That He Wont Build One For A Superboat, Someone Just Needs To Fork Out Some The Cash.

Re: whats the fastest single engine offshore V Hull??
 

And your hull would be the best canidate.I believe its the fastest of the crop :D

Re: whats the fastest single engine offshore V Hull??
 

Any estimates on the power necessary to push a Y2K to 120mph? Assume a weight for a race layup hull and a tall deck BBC with a blower or turbos.

Re: whats the fastest single engine offshore V Hull??
 

Ive Been Offered The Motor Out Of Mikes Oldsmobile To See What It Would Do. Its A 110 Octane Monster Also Not A Blower Just Lots Of Nos. Its Make A Bit Of Power To Push That 3500lb Steal Beast Into The 7,s.too Much Work For Just A Number.

Re: whats the fastest single engine offshore V Hull??
 

The problem is not the power,but will a #6 work with that hull?You cant go 120 with a bravo too many times.780 HP pushes a Y2K to 95 with a blueprinted bottom.I would say every 200 HP is worth 10 MPH.Figure it out :D

Re: whats the fastest single engine offshore V Hull??
 

It wouldnt make it across the bay unless you put a smaller cam in it and dropped the compression.

Re: whats the fastest single engine offshore V Hull??
 

Zup, can you bolt a blower on the top of your 540 and have it last? Or would you need to drop the comperssion and change the cam first?

Re: whats the fastest single engine offshore V Hull??
 

I think it's time for JC to back up his Superboats again. That I know of there is no company participation in racing of any kind. Lavey Craft, Extreme, Activator's all in F1 and more now. What's it going to take to get a Y2k back in competition? I would love to if I had a bigger budget.
As for big speed numbers, there may be a M4 Procharger in the future for Barley-Legal. Should be 1100+ HP. We'l see how the Mortgage business goes next year. Any sponsors out there?

Re: whats the fastest single engine offshore V Hull??
 

JC, it's nice to have you on the thread with positive and well constructed info with reguards of superboats . :D What did you hear about the new merc drive ??? Easy swap out with the XR ??

Re: whats the fastest single engine offshore V Hull??
 

Faster, I agree - you do throttles and I'll drive??? Team Superboat, where are you?? I'd love to give it a try!!!

Re: whats the fastest single engine offshore V Hull??
 

Not true at all. I have a JC Performance 900hp in my new 29 Progression. First run out of the box was 96mph. Still testing props but all you Super Boat guys better watch out, I will have it over 100 by next summer! Not too mention the 29 Progression is a bigger boat than the Superboat Y2K and the Activator 29.

Re: whats the fastest single engine offshore V Hull??
 

I agree...

Fasteddie and Jcap were both racing last year, but not this year to my knowledge...

I've been working my buddy Tommy Seatow to step up to the plate, but they have been sponsoring a 30' outboard powered Cat... :rolleyes:

Re: whats the fastest single engine offshore V Hull??
 

Another Nice L.I. boat joins the mix...
What are you running for a drive Titan?

Re: whats the fastest single engine offshore V Hull??
 

Needs its own gimbal.But it will be the drive of choice for fastest single v.

Re: whats the fastest single engine offshore V Hull??
 

Pat, Holden still has that big motor in his Kryp. Its supposedly running well over 100mph. Speedgirl may know more how its running, or even Jeff C?

To get a big motor from JCperf would cost alot less than the 6drive you'll want to go w/ it.

Lastly... the extreme 29 has not proven to be the fastest V, but w/ a 496(425hp) its running 82-83. I think thats a pretty efficient and well proven hull.

Re: whats the fastest single engine offshore V Hull??
 

Are you sure?

Re: whats the fastest single engine offshore V Hull??
 

"A couple more. 81 mph so far with the drive deep and a 28P 4 Blade. Still dialing it in. Dave "(dated 5-25-05)

"Hey Jeff, The cabin is being done as we speak and i'll post pic's of that. The best speed we have seen so far is 83 mph with the drive deep and a 29P 4 Blade prop. We will see an honest 85 mph out of this boat. Dave"

These quotes are from the Extreme forum.

Re: whats the fastest single engine offshore V Hull??
 

Any idea of cost $$$$

Re: whats the fastest single engine offshore V Hull??
 

Stupid money i hear.Will debut in miami show

Re: whats the fastest single engine offshore V Hull??
 

So as usual BIG MERC MONEY.

Re: whats the fastest single engine offshore V Hull??
 

Its A Little Less Than a #6 There Crazy

Re: whats the fastest single engine offshore V Hull??
 

I know the guys over there pretty well and believe me they are not going to sponsor another team right now!!! They are building there corporate head quarters right now and have no time for new stuff right now. That came from the Capt. himself.

I would love to have a sponsor to run P Class. Any one offering money????

Re: whats the fastest single engine offshore V Hull??
 

Watching the races they don't seam as fast as TKO but maybe close with Lavey. I don't think Lavey is setting speed records but they are fast. What's TKO's top speed?

Re: whats the fastest single engine offshore V Hull??
 

I went out on a call with Tom K, the owner of the central CT Seatow franchise, yesterday...
He loves speed, so I have been working him to buy a 30' Super. He can drive and I'll throttle... :evilb:

Re: whats the fastest single engine offshore V Hull??
 

So about 1250hp.

Anyone ever put a #6 behind a Y2K?

Re: whats the fastest single engine offshore V Hull??
 

Someone better step up this year :D :D

Re: whats the fastest single engine offshore V Hull??
 

Hey Pat,
I have an idea, Let's drop my small block in your boat and hang the Arneson off the back, sell my (doesn't count Donzi) Hull. So for about $12,000.00 we could build a 110-120mph SB depending on pulley. It would be the Fastest SB, Fastest small block, Fastest Offshore single engine. on pump gas too!!! :drink:

Re: whats the fastest single engine offshore V Hull??
 

How much for a bare Hull Y2K?? :rolleyes:

Re: whats the fastest single engine offshore V Hull??
 

When I go to my list of boat manufacturers and then click on the Extreme Powerboats link I get something that isn't really boating related.

What's Extreme's home page address?

Hey GEOO,
It's great to here from you finally!
You just keep your wild ride intact just the way she is... :D
She's one of a kind, never to be imitated or duplicated... :drink:

It took me all of last year to get comfortable with 75-76mph; I gotta work up to this century mark thing... :eek:
