    Dad & I outran them for years back in the 70's & 80's. Back then, about 70+ was more than plenty. Today, I think 80 would beat 95% of them.
    .Pretty accurate,your typical fully loaded (tournament ready)20 foot bassboat with 225hp (green motor) will have a hard time hitting 70mph.Now if you run up against an Allison,Bullet or Stroker type with the 250 and 300hp three liter motors you might get a little suprise :argue:

    I think Olbeizer is showing us true evidence of perpetual motion. I never knew it would be so perfect.

    I think 95% of the jetboats you see on the lake won't do 80. :idea:

    That has to be the LAMEST post that I ever read! I dont where you boat but they sure have some weak hardware. Obviously you havent boated at parker,blyth,yuma,apache lake or with the 6th street crew.......

    I will bow down to the almighty Jet Boat Gods and make my exit lmao...

    I have raced alot of bass boats and the day I get beat is the day I would put a bigger engine in. :crossx: :crossx: Has not happend yet. :220v:
    Yeah, I said that for about 4 years then Thursday, I had one pull away, I knew I was in trouble when he took his hat off. It was at top speed, and he had a couple of Mph on me, I would have probably taken him from the start but this is the time to build something bigger or just take the v drive out and find him. The jet is a mild 468 and the boat and I were both loaded.
    It was an evenruder. I'm guessing his top was @ 80mph.
    Time for a blower! :squiggle:

    I totally walk them in the first 1/4 mile but where there fast is in the bad water not fit for a drag (style) boat :220v:

    80 is slow, you would need to get over the hundred mark to beat my HST brah..........( . )( . )..........
    That only means your HST isn't in the bottom 90%. There's ALWAYS SOMEBODY who is faster.
