Congrats!
That is a very nice boat.
Out of curiosity what would a loaded one cost with the listed motor packages and what kind of speed might one see?

Spectacular performance for a reliable single, you guys should be proud and I am surprised we don't YET see many of these beasts running around.

INSman, there will be many more to come. We delivered one two weeks ago and are scheduled to deliver a 900 HP 290 in a week or two. There are more deals in the works also. Thank you guys for the props. Cobra continues to evolve into one of the best and continue to improve every day.
Thanks again and congrats to the other winners this year. All of them deserved it. E-Ticket, Eliminator and the other winners continue to keep the custom boat market competitive.

when the time comes to sell my kachina > cobras viper 290 sxt is the boat i plan to buy. in my opinion as a dodge viper owner it would be sacriledge to put any other motor in this boat than the ilmore V-10. the boat has cobra and viper written all over it and if you truly want a seasnake then you gotta inject the venom and give it the fangs it deserves. for me that will be the ilmore 625. viper V-10 engines can be bored and stroked to 600+ cubic inches now. the viper car aftermarket has plenty of R&D put into this engine with superchargers and turbo's as well. i would like to see how fast this boat would go and handle with 1,000 hp? i am hoping 120 mph with no adverse handling issues?

With a 525, about 5.5 seconds. Freddy, we are testing one at the end of the week with 900 HP. We don't forsee any issues with the boat being that it is such a sable platform. I can attest that at 94 mph with 6 people and better than half tanks, the boat was rok solid and even with the gnarly cross chop, the boat stayed settled and handled the chop with ease. AND it turns on a dime. Stay tuned.

i am a little confused on how the drivers seat works? i have seen the writeup in powerboat magazine. is the seat on some sort of shock absorber system? also if you wanted to have a drop out bolster type seat put into the boat would this work? it looks to me like a drop out bolster type seat would be way to tall in this boat?

120 in a 29' 'V' ?? :idea: Not saying it couldn't do it, but I would throw Bob Teague in there first to see if he lives to tell about it :)

Now now Kilr, Don't confuse yourself buddy, Remeber your old post in which you said, " My boat runs about 100 with 600 HP" And I said, "Our mod V does 95 with a 625 Ilmore" Not 600hp, it was with 625 HP.
But thanks for your Congradulations Kilr, Means alot to us. And Congrats to DCB who also won another Powerboat award.

But yes congrats to Cobra, just repaying the favor like you did the first time.....

LOL No, I said your boat wouldn't run that speed with 600 HP and then you said you had whackers and I said, sorry, you're right, outboards are cool. I never said that our mod v would run 100 with 600 HP. But anyway, you did get me on the whacker deal. LOL
G'night Kilr
