    The acceleration is very impressive. With the IMCO power steering I am driving with one hand and the other on the throttles. I never have to trim down or lower the motors to get on plane either.

    I'd be willing to bet a good 12"-18" chop and a full size lake, you'll see 100. Boat looks great!

    The Tuff was still full of gas and now runs a bit over 95 with gas and 2 guys. Picked up 3 mph? Acceleration was awesome, and now only takes about 3 seconds to get on plane. I even took off with motors at the running trim level and 2.5" above the bottom and it still got on plane in about 3 seconds.

    Here's a video making a couple passes at 97 with just me in the boat.
    100mph goal is right around the corner. Even more impressive to run 95mph with he 60 gallon tank full of gas.

    Messing round with boats is fun !! the learning never stops ,even after more than 30 years there's always something new happening somewhere ! BUT somethings never change and some problems never go away and just keep reoccurring !!so moved into Composite Forensics , Now that something completely new !!
