How fast does your boat go?
A boat would be cool but I wouldn't buy them until my car collection's complete
I've been boating since I was a little kid, love the water and freedom of speed out there. You know, your car collection will never be complete, so you need to work one in someday. Even a crappy cheap boat looks pretty good to someone stuck on the shore! Besides, the earth is 66% covered with water, so you'll always find someplace to run it.
www.screamandfly.com is the nets performance boating community with several meets each year, lots of drive events like we have, tons of photos and a huge forum.
My Lavey as a twin turned 32" cleaver props at 8300 rpm, which burried the pre-gps speedo, but is a mathematical 121 mph.
It is the only twin OB hull that Lavey built. They started as a California flat bottom drag hull builder in the 60's, now have progressed into the offshore market. These Mod VP hull 18-21 ft models were from the 90's. As is sits now she runs 80 MPH with one 2.4 liter Mercury Bridgeport, pretty good for a boat with full interior and all the amenities and skiing capability.
