Go to page 36
Out of the nine boat lineup, which one would you buy and what kind of power would you put in it?
or
if those don't fluff your feathers,
then what would you purchase if money was not an issue.

Plus, in a 30+ foot boat, you need to be doing about 140mph just to feel the exhileration I feel at 85mph in my 19' tunnel.

I dont know I get a pretty good rush at 90 in my 32 (nrrd about 3 foot chop however. I would agree my first boat was 8 feet with a tuned up 25xs merc and would run about 57 (i was 14 and 120lbs)and it felt like a rush then i moved up to a 28 skater and it felt like it was screamin at 90 in moderate chop then the 32 thunder with prochargers it ran 102 (only ran 4 times) and that was a great rush also. I was on Meade two years ago @ 152 in a 40 skater and it was like going 50 on a jet ski (lake was flat)

22' Eliminator Daytona with twin 280 EFI Mercs. I like the rush of driving the smaller boats. wink

21 Daytona, jet, blown efi 528 inch hemi. There's something to be said for the small boats with a lot of HP. The rush is not the same as as a big boat. This was my rush, not a Daytona, but still scary fast.

I would take the Essex Vortex, however I would yank the 496HO and opt for the 496Mag.

I had a 19ft picklefork and sold it and bought a 22ft Scarab V. The bigger boat is nice to cruise and spend the day in, but the high powered little tunnel was 100 times more fun to drive. Packin air is way more fun than chine walkin.

If money were no object, I'd build a Rush GN style v-drive with a turbo motor. Race and water ski all day. Or a Schiada of Hallett v-drive.
I just don't want a boat with one of those black things out the back.
