Its a semi displacement hull and i've seen some running at 25 or so but they are clearly not designed for speed..I personally like their roomy beamy design but if you are running 40 to 50 milles one way they can take a while....Guys getting killed in lobster boat races...whats this world coming to?

74, I might go see that some time?

Looks like fun to see them big boats that usually are just a slow troll when you see them, flying along!

i would love to do that
i once put a v-6 in a lawn mower to see how fast it could go i got to 30 miles an hour before i ran out of gas because it ony had a 2 gallon tank.

Camping on one of our local rivers in college (and drinking very heavily), we used to do crazy stuff.

One night I put a 15 Johnson on my 6' dinghy.....we had a full moon so plenty of light.....I had to sit up front to get it to plane off, but once on plane it took off and screwed!

I got clocked at 37 MPH by another bigger boat with a speedo running next to me!

When we stopped they asked what the hell I was doing but they were laughing! LOL
