I'm sure Sean can't wait for the 3 hour break in to be over, so he can put the hammer down and see what she does

I even have the video. Got camera back from kate and never checked it or the setting. My bad. Lens was also filthy. It's better then nothing. I'll be ready next time.
The boat is soo awesome. Planes instantly with almost no bow rise and your doing 45-50 in seconds! Shoots right up to 70. Still have to baby it for break in. George wants to raise up the motors a little and do more testing. But that's after the weekend.
Here's the video link

Sean,

Awesome run! The motors aren't that loud. I can hear you guys speaking clearly.

I like the rooster tail at speed and when you were trimming out the eninges. Cool video. Please take some more!!

Nice running hull!

Was seeing almost 74 at top end (around 5500 rpm), but we have to raise the engines, you have to trim the engines way up to get them to that RPM level and George put it best..."your just shooting your horsepower into the air"

I put almost 8 hours on her this weekend, was hoping to break 10 hours, but had to cut yesterdays trip short. The wind picked up around 11 30 AM and the bay was a MESS. I ran for an hour or so and then just decided to call it a day

Congrats on the good numbers and awesome looking boat!

I was in long island sound during the "mess" and did a 100+ mile trip back from montauk... wishing I had stand-up bolsters right now... damn.
