    Boat looks heavy in the back end. To give him the benefit of not being dialed in the props on there looked like 3 blade bravos. Not anything worth much.
    Still with some work not much more than a 100mph boat IMO.
    The controls are the standard Verado issue for pleasure boats.

    Yes nice Video. half to agree looked a little stern heavy. Whats the speed with twin 300xs or X on a 30 motion? i would think faster than 92? Maiden voyage but setup will take some serious work from were shes at now I would believe.

    That boat needs some serious setup work. Wrong props. Needs some weight in the front. I have owned two of these 30 Motions. Triple 280 ran 115. Twin 300 Promax ran 100 (not the x but the lowly fishing motor). To only run 92 mph with those engines is sad.

    Ding, ding, ding. We have a winner. Took the words right out of my mouth. No matter how fast (or not) is goes, right now it's one evil handling boat in need of some serious setup changes. Left like it is, we have an accident waiting to happen.

    Ignorance is bliss...

    I have not heard of anyone happy with the 400hp
    maybe on a Yellowfin?
    I saw a Yellowfin with three of those car/motor outboards (Seven) yesterday , It looked like it was eleven foot wide
