Fastest Twin /Triple /Quad outboard boat ?
Any body know what is the fastest top end speed with a twin or multiple outboard boat has been? Not Claims but at least a timed trap , Radar or GPS speed? I would think somebody has been north of 140 or so.

There was a quad 280 32' Skater that ran in the mid 130's. Setup at Lake X. King Sting (or something like that) was the name. Has since been made back into a twin 300xs boat.

There is a 36' w/ quads, but different boat.
It was just "The Sting" There's a couple before shots with the 2.5's here. It was rigged in St Pete by Ingle's marine.
