Try to get yourself a gps. That will get you a more accurate reading. I heard you talking about switching gearing, etc... to reach a goal of 4 more mph. I'll bet you already have that 4 mph but are just getting a "bad" reading with the radar. Or have some sit in the middle of the "strip" with the radar and drive as straight as possible towards him. I'm sure you can find someone to do it......beer pays a lot of bills on the river...... Good luck! Nice boat!

We put anywhere from 1200 t0 1800 hp in these boats. More than that could be done, but nobody knows where the hull design limitation is until that threshold is crossed and somebody possibly gets hurt.. At APBA timed speed events these types of hulls have eclipsed 150 so we know low 150's are possible but few people dare attempt that.
