Details,,, we need details. was it a 12' fountain? hard to imagine a big v with outboards, cept the CC fish models, but even still, 130 is what that 28 Nordic went turning 7 grand.
most overnite successes usually take at least 10 years

Not bad for their first cat. Those numbers are excellent for a 32ft outboard boat.

That’s funny $#!t right there!
If you hold your finger on the speed digits on the newer VesselView such as the one in the original picture, it’s called “deep dive” and will open another screen showing speed@RPM. If your statement is true it will be 130/0.
I’m wondering if maybe Myrick Coil had something to do with setup and driving. He just drove a big Skater with twin 1350/1550 DualCal QC4’s to 180 on 1350 power. He’s very good at setup and driving.A problem is only a problem when viewed as a problem...

I think Billy Moore has been the guy to run this hull the fastest so far. Myric would be jumping teams to get involved and I can pretty much guarantee that isn't going to happen. I will be out there on Wed. and staying for a week to hang out with the Performance boat center crew and take part in the Lake race festivities. I am sure that I will hear about this screen shot.
Fred (Big Thunder) is the main sponsor of the lake race this year so I hope they have a canopied version of this boat with 300s to enter against all of the Doug Wrights and Ryan's Skater.

Looks like it can take some big water, it's ruff being poor.

Well, it’s sort of a Fountain in that everything that was here: http://smartmarineboats.com/ is now in NC and being funded by Iconic.

I was just going to say that I think it is the cat that smart marine built a few of...I think they are doing something in conjunction with fountain.
