We hit 85mph in Jeff's 22ft Stinger... What's the top speed of your boat?
:chase:

 

[Speedwake]

what she's not saying is that both of us were sitting about 2 inches higher in our seats after a few seconds at that speed in that boat.....

in a word scary! scary! scary! scary! scary! scary! scary! scary!

 

[greeneyedbeacher]

Speak for yourself... I only got scared when you started playing chicken with the footers of that bridge!

 

[Gambrinus]

83 on gps 42 Fountain Not scary enuff!!!

 

[Speedwake]

I was testing your metal.

 

[greeneyedbeacher]

And I was testing the thickness of the skin on your arm with my fingernails! :laugh:

Gambrinus: Yeah, but I bet you were an impressive sight at 83 in a 42!

 

[OldMagicfloat]

most likely the lack of clothing helped
I,m sure it decreased the weight at least 1 oz.

 

[greeneyedbeacher]

It may have lessened the wind resistance a bit... but then again...

To answer your original question - around 80 so far. See post under "Who's ready for the season yet?"

 

[26scarab]

I actually broke 80 - 80.1 GPS, the .1 counts doesn't it?

 

[laster]

If anyone asks, you can just say "It'll do over 80".

 

[26scarab]

After a few drinks that is usually what I say

 

[Red Stripe]

70.1 in a 19 footer

 

[OldMagicfloat]

NOT FAST ENOUGH! But like I said in another post, I'm really going for a bigger boat with alot more speed, the number doesn't mean anything to me, as long as it's fast!

 

[Thirsty Turtle]

I'll let you know in a few weeks. 70....plus or minus a couple is what I'm guessing. Fred says 72.something on GPS.

 

[RumRunner]

In my boat Last year on N2O we hit 86, but started to chine walk I'll know more with new props later on.

Went 136 in a Skater, everything was kool until it started to dance around 130 or so my but cheeks clinched sooo hard I wish I'd had a piece of coal up my but, I'd be rich right now.

 

[insptech]

Only 90-30 foot Cat-minor pucker factor.

 

[26scarab]

I've been 98 on my friends 31 Larry Smith Scarab,
and I was behind the wheel of another friends 28-30? Redline Cat (Team Catastrophic) and we just about it 100 when it thru a blade off of one of the props. Man that blade went thru the cavitionplate like it was butter !
And 80 in my own boat, but the thing is with all of these it still wasn't "fast enough" ! I would like to go 150 on the water someday. Anyone want to give me a ride ???

 

[Speedwake]

I expect about 71 or 72 in the Top Gun....

 

[Aggressor Tom]

71.8mph gps, 4 people, full tank, 94 Sunsation aggressor with stock 502 and Mirage 25 pitch. Had the Hydrostream about 80mph, much more of a thrill in the little boat. Drove the old man's Sanger flat bottom with a 426 hemi close to 90mph when I was 14, haven't matched it yet.
