Tested the newest 21 Liberator today with a 300R

I took the new 21 to the lake today for it's first "shakedown" cruise with a new 300R. All these motors have to run about 2 hours before they will let you take them to the limiter. For some reason, this one took full rpms right away! I ran it about 45 minutes before I started 30 second passes on my little 1.25 mile long test lake. This boat hauls ass!. 40-104 in 20 seconds every single pass! It was just me and 20 gallons of 87 octane. Kind of a pain to drive 100 over my wakes with one hand on the wheel and the camera in the other.Here's a video. Maybe someone can embed it for me.

Looks like another great build....I just can't get used to that 4 stroker sound as its winding up...just take 2 strokes away from that combustion cycle and it will sound perfect!

Randy other than the price, does the max 5 work well with 300R as opposed to the merc 5 blade cnc

Max5 works great but is slower than the CNC. The newest CNC's are supposed to be even faster. I should know how much in a few weeks.

My 34 CNC was one of the first ones. I heard they had two more upgrades and the new ones are the fastest. I should be trying a new one out soon hopefully
