the Campion chase 910 also had a single engine app - if I recall that was 30 foot boat with built in swim platform. Campion does not sell that model anymore. I want to say it was around in 1995 or 1996 till what 2006 or something like that

I can't remember the name of the offending manufacturer as they didn't produce the boats very long. I seem to remember Steve telling me that there was legal action.

I think the 390 was the first boat to exceed 115MPH in 2006/2007 with with the Merc Racing 700SC/NXT package. The pad bottom fed cleaner water to the NXT than the stepped hulls - less prop slip. Even 8 or 9 years later the Outerlimits aren't much faster with newer technology using the same engine/drive package.
the 30 started out as a mirage 29

I spent probably 200hrs run time in a 96 single 502. Ran fast for the size, build quality was okay. Seemed light in the big waves.

Sad to see the Velocity name go. I will always remember my first ride in an original Steve Stepp 22' back around 1985. I was amazed how well it performed with a stock Mercruiser 330.

The Velocity name and 12 boat molds are for sale with a contact number and the person name along with an email address. Just FYI - just in case anyone wants to jump into the boat business.
