    Over on THT, Propbenders 38 Fountain with quad 300 Optis is running 85mph turning bravo ones. Homesites 38 Fountain with quad 350 Verados ran 82 or 83mph but he has never been abe to back it with a pic of his GPS. His claims to even higher speeds are "suspect" to say the least. Those are probably the fastest big CC's with factory power and layup.
    If anyone has a faster CC, Homesite has been challenging anyone to a race over on THT. Although his boat isnt as fast as Propbenders, it is extremely quick. The thread is probably 20-30 pages deep at this point...

    Live in S FL. Have seen the 38 Fountain with quad 350HP motors. Runs very fast in the 80's. Not set up for top end.
    Fountains are the fastest hands down with Invincible being a close second. Personally own a 34' Fountain with triple 350 Verados runs honest 82. The guy with the avance or whatever it is at 93mph?????. Bring it on. We have never been beat. Any one of you guys can google the Grove Slam in Miami. It is a fishing tournament that has a boat race for anyone who wants to show up. A 38 Fountain won with 4 300xs optis. Homeslice boat was also very fast but went into gaurdian mode because of water pressure. Fountain also has a documented run with a 38 w/4 300xs opti's at 87.9mph.
    We are currently getting ready to sell it if you are interested.
    You can PM. Will sell with or without power. Any doubt about our boat ask Max200. He went for a ride

    I wish Skater would build a 36ft Center Console cat with triple 300XS just to silence all of the THT noise about who is faster. It would set a bar that would be untouchable.

    I have been thinking about that since 1991, there was a torn up 32 where the deck was junk and I wanted to make a CC out of it. Never did happen.

    Jaguar is about out of business. Have a customer who has been waiting for his boat for over a year.
    Stay tuned you may just see a Skater 36 center console oneday. Have already been talking to Peter.
    Deep Impact had a boat at the Grove Slam race also. Could not hang with the Fountains. Only the Invincible.
    By the way CC Fans. Invincible will have a quad 350hp verado 42' at the Miami boat show. Boat is supposed to run 85 or more. Invincible boats hull was designed by Michael Peters.

    I have a 30' CC in production now that should kick some butt. My full deck 30's with twin 225's run 82-84. And that is with the old bottom. The newer redesigned bottom is faster by 3-5 MPH. The full deck model weighs in at around 2500 lbs. The 30' center console weighs around 1800 LBS. ( 700 lbs. lighter) and will be rigged with 250 Mercs. This boat will also be getting the sitdown Millenium console as opposed to the tall standup console. Rigging and dialing in will be done by Accurate Marine. With the 700 lb. weight saving and the 50 extra HP, this boat will do easily 85. We're hoping to beat Fountains Documented speed of 87.6 (not 87.9) with nothing more then 2 250's. April is dialing in time. I'll keep you posted.
    Here are a few pictures of the 30 CC with a single 300 Suzuki, which pushes it in the upper 60's.


    And a picture of the Millenium sitdown Center Console with buckets

    Rick,
    If you look back a few post... I tried to sell the Superboat 30cc, but no one replied! You have some amazing boats, and everyone who owns one should be proud to say they own one of the best boats in this country!

    What are the specs on the beam for the 30' Superboat. Also from the pictures not quite 38' feet long and lacking a lot of fishing team related elements like live wells, hardtop, rod holders fish boxes etc....
    I am sure if Reggie built a light fish boat for pleasure boating and not fishing the numbers would be higher.
    Everyone needs to keep in mind CC boats run in the ocean not in inland waterways and always fully loaded when fishing tournaments.
    i would like to see them bring the Superboat down to the Grove Slam Race in Miami in the spring. All the big boys will be there. Last Year the seas were 4-6.
    See you there.

    I find that hard to believe. Theres a guy around here with a 38 Fountain CC with trip 350 Verado's. Tops out at 75. Helm has clocked it on GPS, running light.
    And the one your talking about does the same speed with the same boat, fully loaded for fishing with 450 less HP. I have to put my hip boots on, it's getting deep in here.
