Powerboat Tests the 30' AMT?

[Havasu Hangin']

Come on...someone spill the beans!
Rumor has it that Tony and crew were out at Lake Mead with Bob Teague at the throttles!
How fast did she run?

well my sources said it ran in the 101 Mph range...not bad for a 30' boat with 2.5's

While parked at Copper Canyon on Sunday, I saw them running north from Springs direction heading towards the channel. They appeared to be doing in 90-100 range and the pics don't do the pictures justice...that boat is clean. They also have it sitting on sick nickle color dually extreme trailer...they launched out of Havasu Springs.

2.5's or 300X's. I thought the boat was going to get twin X's. Over 100mph with 2.5's on a 30 footer would be very impressive. I wonder what Franks DCB 29 will do with twin X's. Any ideas what you think max mph will be??

I think they are running 300x's; it looked that way while they were passing, and when you look at the lowers in the other thread, they look like x's..

They were 300x's on the back of the AMT....Hey X-Factor, who is getitng the 29 with X's??? My opinion is that if the AMT only ran 101, the F-29 will be lucky to get 100 argue

Don't mean to hijack the thread, but I saw you (Boatjob) in the Channel on Sunday, we were on the city side just at the curve in a Mach 26 (White,Blue.,Red)...your boat for sale is pretty clean looking..

Dave is building a F29 for a friend. Open bow, light layup with twin 300X's. My boat is VERY VERY heavy for a 26 and I'm seeing 105mph with 2 guys and 30-40 gallons of gas. I'm only getting 6300rpm's. I believe Franks 29 will see 100-103mph with the light layup, proped right and little weight onboard. We'll see in August-September.
