Wish I still had my 19' Liberator. Merc 280 EFI offshore 15" mid, built up, 9800rpm rev limiter and a 300 shot of go-go juice. Giant money pit but it was fun.

 

Just cause it looked Hauss. The boat is 24 foot long. Just FYI the motor is a 300 hp 2 stroke custom built by Mercury Racing.

 

If the fish were only a 1/4 mile away!

To bad you would have scared off all the fish for a 2 mile radius.

 

Cars are an expensive hobby, but it aint nothing like boats, thats big $$$$

 

That no lie there....

 

Reminds me of this one:

No joke. Jetboats are a money pit Now everybody is stepping up to atleast 555's and some 632's back home. Most spraying a good 350-500+ shot.

 

Try playing with the big outboards. 5-7 nitrous passes and you need a top end. 10-14 and you do the bottom end too. But the sound of an open exhaust 2 stroke v6 screaming at 9000+rpm is a beautiful sound.

 

Boats are where the moneys at for sure. Congrats on the new cruiser Chris.

 

Already posted the same vid. Post 17.

 

My boat goes 42mph GPS'd. Read it and weep!

 

My last one went from 70 to 80 with an impeller change. Pump gas 468 with dual 660 Holleys. Gonna go with a 19' Daytona or Cheyenne next though with hopefully a twin turbo LSx.

 

got ours @ 61mph

 

Awesome!

We are just running with a stock 1987 Mercruiser 350. It's fast enough to have a little bit of fun on the tube.

 

Cool..that's all ya need. Here are a few of mine:









About a 100' rooster tail

 

Nice boat!

 

get an allison and run 100+ with a stock 200hp mercury...

 

buddy of mine just bought a 22ft DCB cat (daves custom boats) with a 300 Mercury on the back, going to make it a 365, boats runs about 100mph.

My Baja 29 runs about 86 MPH on GPS with twin 509s with holly 5140 carbs, CMI headers making about 600HP each.

 

Here is mine..... Sonic 31SS.


Twin 540ci motors that make 725hp/each


Boat will run over 100mph with a prop change. Right now she'll do around 96 tops with the small props.... the acceleration is amazing for such a heavy boat with the small props.
