If a stock Bridgeport can push my Vegas to the mid 90's, I hope it could push a lighter boat to 100. The setup factor is hugely important, particularly with the YT, since it has more wetted hull surface area.

My current 2.4 on that hull is only setting back about 5". The compression is good and even though. Thinking about getting the heads done for a little extra. Maybe set that one up the bet I can and see how far I get. Finishing a bobs cone for it as well. Guess I should do a leakdown on it before doing the heads.
