you only have to worry about a couple of inches when you only have a couple of inches , ya need all you can get.. it was too tempting ,just kidding

what the %$#$ is ROFLMAO ?

[mercpunk]

Well if it was a real effort to have everyone take a step back from the subject and Hector was not selling the boat, I for one think that about an hour - hour and a half of tweaking this boat would be well into the 120's.

[mercpunk]

well if it were to go the way everyone else thinks it should he wouldn't be getting rid of this boat right now !

[cc@100mph]

Coincidence that you say that jeff ! Im actually working on a deal for a 28 with tripples 2.5 efi's. We'll see how it ends up.

1994 25foot Motion with twin 01 Merc 280 offshores!!114MPH so far 120mph coming!!

I think you got a 120 with that new set of 32's although I have heard roomers that 31's ( worked 30's) are where it's at???? I'm looking for a set of 32's to try myself!!

[cc@100mph]

Well its gone and even though im getting something bigger and better it still hurt to see it leave!:(

[Little Jon]

i told you man :D

[skaterjim]

I heard it only went 109 gps what up?

[cc@100mph]

yeah i removed the speaker box and big amp from the front and it stood the nose up at 109 at 5900 rpm did not let me trim or give it more guess it didnt like taking the weight out of the nose and i wasnt gonna keep on playing with it and flip it! it scared us both pretty good!!

[skaterjim]

109 still very good for that combo I am impressed.

[cc@100mph]

i wasnt impressed , its run consistent 115 at 6300 rpm with 4 on board it ran 112 and climbing next to andy driver in his quartershot last weekend at kissimmee river so i really think it didnt like the weight move so Zack ( new owner ) has to either add weight or spin the drives out so how it likes it!

[skydog]

AAHHH You were spinning in!! Now i see why, My Motion had CRAZY lift spinning in but drove like crap. Spinning out she is LOCKED IN and rolling big time! :) :)

I think the weight is the key. I ran 101 with the 2.4 BPs and the boat flew very level. I think with some weight in the nose with the 300s it will be a perfect fit.

yeah jerrrod i changed the system you had in it and put a kicker l7 12 in a box and a kicker amp the weight in the front kept the nose down which would allow me to trim to get to 6400 rpm without it the nose was too light today!

[Hottrucks]

Typical Skater once you get them GOING and your looking for big #'s you need to start trimming them down ( to even if you can) and using your ponies to push you while the shape of it carries the weight.

Look at the pic below thats @ about 90 and to get it really moving I can lower the nose hold the air between the sponsons and carry the boat..granted with the 300's you may need to carry the nose a bit more

AAAHH I will try that this weekend trim her in when i am at about 113 or so?

Thank you Skydog

[Hottrucks]

Hey Dog....... ( I like saying that makes me feel like a pimp) how fast do you need to go before it breaks the water??? I think you will find that the next couple of mph may come easier than you think.... it took me from 100 to a 103 now I need to try swinging 32's

[skydog]

Sweet thank you :) :) :) I will try it Saturday! Yea the 32" on my boat just rock!! I gained like 6-7 mph over bone stock 15X30 i wish i had some 34" to try!!
