I been planning on a top speed run for my twin engined 21ft Liberator cat. I took it to a local lake today because it seemed like it would be flat water. I got a couple friends to take another Liberator and wait at the far end of the lake in case something went wrong. They got about a mile down the lake when I went by at over 120. Coming up on them, I thought they were idling. They said it was like they were standing on the side of the interstate watching me go by at over 120 mph. They were doing 75.
Every pass was at 124 mph. It was like it was on rails. No hop, no wobbling, nothing but the scream of 330 HP 2.5 Mercs at 8400 rpm. It was a little choppy which normally cost me 4 or 5 mph. It runs fastest on dead calm water. I was hoping for 130 before I sell it, but I'll try again. Here's a thread on the run on Scream and Fly. http://forums.screamandfly.com/forums/showthread.php?t=101931
