Me and SCT took a lake run today. 65 degrees out and the roaring of his 2 300X's engines grab attention from anybody within a mile radius. Without trying 90 mph maybe faster but I was trying to hold on and thats not easy with a broke hand and wiping the tears out of my eyes. But I guarantee when I looked over the GPS needle was on a heavy nine. I was goin to take a pic of the GPS but I had to piss so bad FROM COLD BEER when we got back I forgot. From what I see his boat has alot more if some prop experiment would take place

AND DO NOT FORGET THIS HOT ROD IS FOR SALE

Good stuff! I can't wait for 65 and a boat ride - to go 90mph just
puts icing on the cake - wow!!:eyecrazy:

I've been 90+ once in a friends boat - ride of my life!! Where fear
meets euphoria! I look forward to going there again sometime!!

No doubt you both had a hell of a ride - awesome!:thumb:

Nice ride!! How did it handle at speed? I have always thought twin outboards are overlooked on midsized v hulls. Powerboat mag should do a test on your set up. Speed, looks,and fuel economy. Keep us informed on the testing. Mike

I'll bet that boat handles 90mph without much concern. My old hydrostream Vking was deadly at mid 80's, just simply not allot of fun wondering if you were going to put the thing on its lid each trip out:eyecrazy:

The boat rode damn good at 90. I am a little nervous when other people are driving wide open. But the boat handled good. I did not feel any chime walking. You did not have to fight with it or what I call counter steer. Straight and smooth. And when you let off the throttle quick the boat also was straight and smooth.

The bigger the boat is, the better they handle and ride.
