Offshoreonly.com - Superbabi !! Heres your pics of your Y2K

Why would you want to shoot a huge rooster tail?? I always felt that If you a shooting a huge tail you are not running efficient. As you raising the trim your bow should lift, and the drives should still run parallel with the top of the water. If your drives just raise and raise, your bow is not lifting, therefore, huge rooster tail??

The rooster tail comment ( by me ) is talking about using a Surface type drive system on the Y2K, not an XR type drive set up thats trimmed up all the way.

The tails not that high. Its something that cant be avoided when you have 1/2 the blades above the water line.

Hey Gary,
I saw advertised in Power Boat that the new Teague Platinum XR is rated at 900HP.

I do not see it on the web page yet though.
100mph is within reach...:D

Yes, but doesn't that drive require a transmission?
