    Yeah I know it depends on how you power them, but I want to know what people have seen or what people for fast center consoles. fastest i know of is a 38' Fountain with (4) 2.5's that'll do low 80's, but it is not a production boat.

    I know it's shorter than what you were asking about, but there's a guy on here with a 25' Action center console with a pair of Second Effort V-8's that will run over 100.

    i think the most popular fountain around the nc coast is the 31 foot. most people don't power them for speed usually 2 225 optis or 250 yams or the like. i think i have heard they run about 60 or so propped to fish.

    if you want just speed, don't go with a center console designed to fish, T-Tops, electronics boxes, live wells, bait wells will all slow you down as well as running with 200 gallons of fuel

    they now make a few catamaran CC's also which run pretty fast!! most V-hulls are just under/over 60MPH
