Fastest V ever !!

[garbubba]

I hear ya, and to each his own, I've been over 100mph in a boat with a 2cylinder merc (a bit modified & running avgas!) The hull weighed just over 100lbs. I like going fast too, at least I used to....

Maybe I'm just getting old :-(

im new here so this is my first post...my 73 20v centerconsole hits 49.2 on gps and when im in a light chop it gets a little hairy...its fun to go fast but like the other guy said you only see it 2-3 times when ur itching or wanna pass the weekend warrier in the channel..these 20v hulls are unmatched in the ride game..at 32 mph crusing i can still take alot more than most boats my size in 3 footers(worst case)..thanks for the info guys and keep em alive..

I love streching out my F150 Yamaha. It is great flying over smooth water at 48-50mph. That is really about all it has, still on spinning around 5300 rpm. Boat rides real good that fast. We normally cruise thru big chop at around 35 just to stay on top of the waves. Got into some bigger wind blown rollers yesterday in Pensacola Bay. They where running 3-4 ft and I had to go real slow due to the wife being with us. That was a long, bumpy ride. Once I dropped her off we took our V on a faced pace trip up Bayou Texar, wide open. It is a great feeling being trimmed up and flying.
