Guys better start paying attention-we have lost several in 24 skaters that didn't run anywhere near this and took way longer to get there. Speed factor is getting real....and these boats are not a good idea "just because you can afford it". I might sound like I am getting old but the fact is that its not worth dying for and inexperienced people need to hear it from someone. We are just getting started and look at the numbers that outboards are going to produce. I personally thrive on it but there is going to be absolutely no good results of people drinking, smoking, etc. and then running stuff with this acceleration and weight carrying capability "worries me to be honest".

agreed joe. and I am sure randy goes testing every boat with a helper boat along.
