We need to start a 60mph club.

I like the shag carpet........ if I ever get one of these boats, think I'll do mine in even deeper pile carpet, leopard print.......and put curb feelers on my trailer.

See what I've done- this was a nice web site about quiet little classic style runabout boats, and I've ruined it.

Talk of pushing em' over 60 mph, rigging with monster outboards.
It's just wrong.

Spongebob is fairly pimped out if I recall Capt Pete, with a sleeper under the cowl too...

LMAO, I DID take it off later in the day...LMAO As to HP, well, I figure its right around the 450-500 with a 750 or 800 carb. I have it choked off a bit with a 600. It has the HD drive gears, shower head, and just so much more. Man, it was like monster garage for boats.... Just had a super day with it.

Just a few pics of the details coming together on her....

I never let you guys know how fast she floats....LOL


We did NOT hit 70mph. I have it limited to 5300rpm, and all she will give me there is 67mph. Its not bad, bouncing the front end, but I am sure that has more to do with my skills in getting trimmed right. It didnt do any chine walking, I wonder if there is a differance between the I/O boats and the Outboards???

We were not light by any means, full tank again, 60gallons, and 2 250+ guys, and me, at 160. One yeti cooler full of pepsi. We were on the water about 730am, then promptly spun the prop hub after a speed run. But, got a new one on, and we where in the boat till 900pm

I have to admit, it was really cool being the fastest boat, including jet skis, on the lake wendsday. Them poor boys never stood a chance....

I also got looked at funny, and kinda implied I didnt know what I was talking about at the local marina there, when I was hunting for a prop hub for the "Bravo 1 24p" for the Wellcraft 20V. Promplty took the guy for a ride after it was fixed....he was simply stunned
