The weight ratio (boat) to power should be a lot of fun!.....

Sweet Setup!!!! what kind of speeds are you hoping for?

70mph.

close to firing up?

I’m hoping so.,

Splash yet ?, saw you got the motor fired up on FB

Very slow response on my part. I splashed the boat in early summer. Very pleased with everything. Top speed so far is 72.9 mph. The boat will cruise at 30 while returning over 4mpg on 87 octane. The ride is amazing, it eats up chop. Not a hint of chine walk.
The V10 is smooth, quiet and the torque is amazing. 1/2 throttle gets the boat up on plane easily with minimal bow rise. Full throttle as you can’t trim fast enough!
As much as I loved the 24 this boat is so much more versatile.
