Wow that is very strong......

Donzi hit 114 with no cabin
Cig 39 can't break 110
and both of those are smaller than the 43 SL.

42 Fountain with juiced 700's ran 110 in the shootout (could go faster shootout is only 1 mile)...everyone knows that speed is bogus for a stock 700...they just discredit themselves when they post crap like this.

I forget which magazine but there was an 700 / Outerlimits boat test and the top speed was recorded at something like 6000 rpm...the stock 700 redline is 5400 above which it goes into guardian mode...case closed.
 
Animalhouse.

Has there been actual real world testing to show a dramatic increase in performance having the boat extend over the drives out back? I think you (Outerlimits) would call it a bustle as well.

I ask because I personally would like the appearance of the boat without it better. I feel that way about all the boats that have them. Not that anyone cares :blush5:

There are many advantages to the bustle, and yes there has been Real world testing. The bustle increases appearance, controls noise and fume odors from the exhaust from backdrafting into the cockpit, and it also has a Major Aerodynamic Benefit. The Aerodynamic Benefit being the most important.

I like the appearance both ways, but I think the bustle makes the boat look sleeker and more streamlined.
 
Noise and fumes? If you're going fast enough, you'll leave those behind you! :sifone:

Thanks :USA:

I purposely left the Fountain out of the mix since Reggie liked to run the boats down river with less than 10 gallons of fuel with a 100 lb jockey type running the boat to get the big number that is unobtainable ever again......
