    Well guys, the test is in from the latest Powerboat magazine and unfortunately for you Koolaid drinking DCB lovers out there I've got some bad news. Your all mighty DCB got straight up smoked by the Spectre with identical power. Here's the facts boyz:
    DCB 32
    8500 pounds
    Ilmor MV-10 625
    Hering six-blade 15" x 33" props
    Zero to 20 seconds = 67 mph
    40 to 70 mph = 10.5 seconds
    Top speed at rpm 121.6 mph at 5700 rpm
    Time to plane 8.2 seconds :sleeping:
    Spectre 32
    8000 pounds
    Ilmor MV-10 625
    Hering five-blade 15 1/2" x 33"
    Zero to 20 seconds = 86 mph
    40 to 70 mph = 7.7 seconds
    Top speed at rpm 130 mph at 5700 rpm
    Time to plane 5.1 seconds
    You guys got your comparison, so I'm sorry to break the news. :devil:

    Say it ain't so!!! How about a dollar to Kool-aid comparison????
    I sure didn't see many DCB's in Newport or at Catalina last week either. :idea:
    Hmmm... Perhaps Scott Conrad can add a training wheel and some kind of flashy new hairdo.
    Perhaps, seeing how Blacksock1 has been taken, he can run blue socks instead, like OCEAN water!!!
    Charley, cleanup AISLE 1 and STEP ON IT!!!
    Love you long time Mr. Big.
    But does the Spectre have a 12V socket? :idea:
    My 30' does but it's not billet and has no logos on it.

    Bang for the buck, it seems as though you can't go wrong, unless you're set on having a lake boat. Hell, I bet if Dave put his hair in a bun and stopped picking $$$ from his g-string they'd probably pick up a couple seconds on that time to plane.

    Now if Spectre would just put the steering wheel on the other side !!
