It's a red Ocean Pacer named "Past Performance" 
He trailers it, but they live in Falmouth so we almost always launch out of Falmouth harbor. Good luck selecting the right prop - 92-93 is hauling the mail in the water we get on the Cape (as you well know)!
One more question: Would 500 hp a side get you to 80, or not quite? I have heard there's a cam upgrade you can do to the crate 502s in this boat I'm looking at that will net you around 500 hp.

I'd love to buy Tsunami, but neither my father nor I have the coin. It's a beautiful boat, though!

Wow I want that boat!!!
It looks just like the boat My buddy kiko and later my brother ran. I spent so many hrs working on and enjoying that boat through the years its like part of me. I spent from the time I was 20 until about 35 on that boat almost every weekend
It Busted up just off the flat rock in Old lyme shores in a storm.
Brand new everything at the time too.
Thats a pretty color scheme and gorgeous looking boat!
I need to dig up some pics of the old 30 and post them.

Tell me a little more about that boat! The all-red looks great. What year was it? Did it have bolsters or seats? Full-width dash or the smaller dash? I think we'll make some "revisions" if we end up keeping this one since right now the cockpit and instrumentation leave a lot to be desired.

Back on track. What is the size of the gas tank in a 33'? Single or twin tanks? Would 500 hp a side get you to 80 if it's a TRS boat? Can I assume 385 hp a side would result in a 65 mph-ish boat?

My 33 with trs and supposedly 500 hp , had a hard time making 78 mph, like I said supposedly 500 hp! Tank is a single not sure about size.
