Don't forget to wax the bottom of da' boat. This alone is worth 15 mph........Ihave talked with Jet Skiers and they gave me this insight......those guys know all their is to know about goin' fast.
I'm gonna shut up here as I can remember about a year ago being in the hot seat.
funny you should mention jet skiers, I was sitting on the end of my dock last summer and a vector cruised by, almost immediatly 2 jet skiers stopped close enough to my dock for me to overhear them. "Hey duuuude, that boat has a 150 on it, 150's will only run 70. let's go kick his ass." Almost made me stick the 150 cowling on my boat and show 'em sumpin'. Only problem was it wasn't worth the time and between the two of 'em they probably couldn't scroung' up 50 bucks to race.
I can see it all now.the 100mph Progressions will converge on the Rondak Romp in June and the Conn River in Oct.and we`ll all be given the gps &stalker radar proof that we all don`t know chit!!!seee ya`ll later!!:cool: :cool: :cool:
For you guys who know joey imprescia, jerry knows he has a 21 superboat with a 300x and jerry knows it will 99 on gps , if there is anyone that wants to put there money where there mouths is lets antie up girls !!!. joes boat is a at least 15 yrs old and its a superboat ( no offence hoser ) and it runs 99 ,
SO IF ANY ONE WANTS TO PUT UP SOME CASH WE WILL GET YOU A RIDE ON THE 99MPH 21 S.B ( wont go 99 with you in it but will go over 95 garranteed !!! ) so jerry wants to see whos got the big ones , gelcoat joe ?? phastboat ?? ChrisXS2003 ? Liqui-Fly??

hold on here.. i think when RONNIE, PHASTBOAT, ERIK, and I were on the marshes a guy with joey imprescia's 21 superboat came along claiming 99mph on gps.. well lets just say within 5min of this RONNIE gave hime a grade A spanking with his spare stock powerhead. which means ronnie beat him and was only going 95!(at most) now unless im talking about a different boat (could be) that boat DOES NOT GO 99MPH! but it is fast.. maybe high 80's low 90's BUT NOT 99MPH!
o yea.. jerry remember you stoped by for a minute or 2 that day (before the winter) remember?

Greg,
It's great having a sleeper!!! It help's cool off the Hot Shot's!!!
That 22' must be a blast.
Here's a better Vid of my 18 Donzi. Click on the Picture.

HEY GEOO...Those were great Donzi clips a while back!!!...I LOVE the sound of the 1st one...That motor is SINGIN'!!!...WICKED KOOL!!!...How does the Arneson drive work on that boat???...Does it have a tendency to "torque over" to one side???...Tabs???...How do you get anybody to ride in it with you???...just kidding...Nice rig!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hey George, glad to see your lurking around- especially when I have been bragging about your boat. Hope things are going well.

I've heard the Baby Blue Progression did bust 100, but how big of a handful was it to drive????
I suppose the answer to that question is in the pictures at Joey Imprescia's shop of Joey towing the upside down baby blue protruding bow back to shore.
As for Joey's 21 Superboat, I've heard that does just under 100 too, but lots of money has gone into the rigging and re rigging on that boat I'm sure. He made a custom short midsection for it too. What are the chances of seeing Joey participate in one of our get togethers. He's so hot and cold.
After owning a Superboat, I don't think I'd want to go much over 80 in that hull. That was my first and last performance V hull.
There is no substitute for a tunnel a 80+ speeds.
It does seem true though, all the smooth talking 90+ Superboat and Progression owners never seem to make an appearance when they say they will be there.
I see alot of people doubting a 24 progression hitting over 100 with a 300 outboard... but the first post said blown 502 stern drive. Now im not a numbers guy but i am in the biz, and i know a stock 502 is kicking some serious ponies, add a blower and your probly well over 500 (numbers guys help me get this right) I don't know how fast this would carry a 24 progression but i think youd be scooting along faster than the 70 MPH its being called at. I also noticed something about the IMCO Drive? is that what it has? if so the thing is set up to the max...
Jay, I never went back to the beginning, but I'm glad you mentioned it. I kept wondering how it shifted from a blown 502 to a outboard. Yes, by the way, a blown 502 would make tons o' power. In fact, I would be upset if it was mine and made less than 600.
I think a light blown 502 is in the same hp /weight aria as 2x260hp
No show means I win. Too hot means I win. Rough water we can discuss. Jeryy you're still just a relatively anonymous goof. I've really enjoyed the humor and will really enjoy the free money. Shall I come down today or next weekend?
As far as 502's go a procharged Teague top nothcher puts out about an honest 700 hp. If you run that through a major drive like an IMCO Extreme lots of that HP goes south.

I got a case of icey cold Coronas that says That SuperBoat wont do 99mph GPS. And i dont want to be on the boat but MY GPS will. Lets do it!!! And while we're there bring some 100mph Progressions with you! If i'm wrong we'll ALL have a good time. If i'm right I will have a hangover the next day.
I'm with you Sam
And I definitely don't want to be in a 100 mph V-hull (maybe an Allison and I would have to be driving) but that's about it.
