Yeah RP... what's that gulping sound?! Just kiddin'.. great vid, I'm sure it's worth it! I'm curious... how fast and how many rpm is that? It's hard to tell...

Re: Aaaaaaaaaaaaaah!

That was 53mph GPS at just a tad over 5K. The culping noise is a pair of 5.7GXi's downing (at that speed) just under 49 GPH by FloScans TwinScan. :D

I'm still running the origionnal 19p props so I can't run WOT yet. :(

Gasoline... a swear word now... hehe
Great vid!
I'm trying to get a couple videos from some bud's... they've bought a 27' Daytona Eliminator (cat) / 540" with a whipple on it... it does 95mph and another just got thier 32' Skater (cat) running / 2 x 598" naturals... it went 100 @ 4500 rpm with 'lots' of throttle left on the maiden voyage (they want 125+!) (gulp!)

No way Jose!
Don't tell anyone... I'm a chicken when it comes to speed and with someone else at the controls. Depending on the ride of course, I'm 'only' (sort of) comfortable to about 80 then it's a bit much for me :)

LOL @ you, but I do understand the speed thing with a feeling of no control.

Re: Aaaaaaaaaaaaaah!

Oh yeah... I sold that Baja (70 mph) but still have the Sea Ray (40 mph). My kid's ok with a bit of speed but not too much... same with waves. Now as for my deckhands... I'll put some pics up when I get back from today's adventure. We all took today off and are heading out for a boat ride right now :)

Nice pics but there's go-fast boats and winter coats don't mix.

Re: Aaaaaaaaaaaaaah!

Yep, you saw it right, jackets.
You could wear one or freeze your jewels off! There's been 2 poker runs recently and both have had the worst weather... cold... rainy... it didn't spoil the fun though. That Nor-tech cat cruised at over 100 mph... the driver/owner said he was taking it easy and staying under 120 that day because his family was with him and any faster it starts to get loose!
