I had not heard of a 24' Super that runs over 90mph.
Jo at Pantera has said that he has customers with 650HP engines in 24s running 90+.
And he personally built a 24' with 850HP that did hit 100...

Re: Superboat Speeds ???
OK....I just ran across the mystery Y2K'er on the job I was talking about earlier. His name is Donny. He was from Babylon...now lives ouut east. He knows JCAP. He has a 2003 Y2K...race hull layup... right after JohnJr's. He's running a 540...I forget how many HP...(find out tomorrow)...has a best speed of 89. First words out of his mouth was "BowLift"...he has run high & low & agrees deeper with trim is the only way he can get speed. He is trying an extension box next for the hell of it. 
I told him about the Y2K(X) currently being built by Rocker Rick. He liked the idea & said that is what it needs. 
-Greetings JCAP!
