Boating mag tested the step hull? or a tempest ? I would love to see that, I thought a 30Y2K never really got a write-up? My hull is built like a tank but its heavy,hp 500 with XR and imco lower couldn't break 80.I know the Zuperboat is much lighter than my hull ,and the rumor is it was close to triple digits with a strong blower motor! Fast Eddie, what does your hull weigh?and whats your power in there now?

It was the Y2K in Oct of 02, I'll take a picture and post it.

let's see, Oct 02 nothing but praise.

I wish it were better but that will have to do. # 70.6 full fuel 3 people. 2.2 mpg at 70.6:D

I took one of my Labbed 26's and tested the first 30/496 HO's, with John, Big Jim and my self we ran 76 on Merc Speedo, The owner said the speedo was 2mph off, I was very impressed of how it ran.

Jim, my boat weighs 4650 and ran 80.9 before adding the 375lbs that rules required.

Hey jcap - the trip to NY is still on for this coming weekend (Sat May 8th). I will get to John's place probably around 10-11 am. Are you still interested in meeting up sometime on Saturday? When's a good time to give you a call this week - let me know and we can connect. There has been a delay and so I'm not sure on my delivery date right now - very anxious to see John and his operation, and get a date locked down. Talk to you soon!

Hey Kieth, if you can take some pictures!

hey Keith,
My boat still isnt on long island, I just spoke to the shop and just a few details still not completed.I might be picking it up on saturday, she is running great and I am actually detuning , its running too fast! i race P4 and cant run faster than 80mph .(Lowering boost to 3 psi and going down to a 30 bravo ,5 psi and a 32 had me breaking 90 for the first time !) so a sunday ride is a possibility. What time are you leaving sunday ?
give me a call thursday or friday and I should know for sure when my boat will be completed.
