We ran 144 miles on the St. Johns River yesterday. Half of it over 90mph. Here's a pass at 105 mph. I kinda like this video stuff!

How fast would a dual 300XS rig run, Randy? 130-132 range??

WILDMAN
01-23-2007, 12:58 PM
Probably only 115-116 with a set of 34's on the limiter. Not enough rpms. I have a set of 2005 280 ROS motors that should put it at 120 with no problem. Just need someone with some money.

Here's acouple pics from the day. The 2nd one is in Silver Glen Springs. In the summer there's hundreds of boats in there. The water is 72 degrees all year, summer and winter.

I sell Liberators, so all my boats are Liberators. The 25 all rigged with the motors is around 3500 lbs. dry. The motors are 99's so they only turn 6400. I run 32x15 cleavers. I've run it 108, but the norm is 104-106 at 6100-6200. The motors are all the way down on the transom. I had them higher and it was faster, but when you're having too much fun and trimming too high, the motors would get hot and go BOOM! It's the same bottom as a 24 Skater.

The 24 is fast, but the 21 is insane! That thing looked like it was in fast motion. Love the sound of those 2.5's. Sounded like they were dialed in perfect. Were those motors stock?

WILDMAN
01-26-2007, 12:43 AM
They're not completely stock. Compression is stock, ports and exaust is opened up, 1" spacer plate, and the front intake is opened up. I turn 30" cleavers at 8700 and 32's at 8300 at 125-126mph. I'm gonna try for 130 in a couple weeks.

WILDMAN
01-27-2007, 12:21 AM
I can do whatever you want, just takes a little cash.
Fig, I can't sell you no goats. You Miami guys barbecue em. My wife would kill me. Two years ago when I was at the Miami Boat Show, a bobcat killed three of them. Miami and my little goats don't mix.

I hope you mounted that Bastard B-Cat when you found em. How many you have left now? Where did you buy them? They are awesome looking little pets. I was gonna hook-up with ya a couple months ago when I went to the Whaler Plant for training , but they kept us on a tight schedule. Are you Rocking the Mia show this year? My boss owns the 44 MTI CAT MERCEDES OF MASSAPEAQUA, Randy it's Badd !!! I have to post pictures this thing is outta hand and For sale for 1.1mil.

Fig, I shot the bobcat when it came back on the 3rd night. He now resides on my mantle. The last two goats were on top of thier house and there was a 3rd set of eyes right underneath them. I shot it with a 223 with a scope at 300ft in the dark. I had the wife hold a spotlight on it. I was shaking so bad, I don't know how I hit it. I got another one since then. We also saw a Florida panther in the back yard. He just walked past the goats, so I did'nt bother him.

UR probably right but I had to say it. When you read about so many boating fatalities that occur because of no life jacket I am driven to speak. Except for racing you never hear about the ones where they had on jackets and lived.

PUT THEM ON !!
