This is my buddys boat, just finished it late summer.His brother owns and runs horepowerconnection.com up in WA. The hull is a hand laid custom DeMarco runnerbottom, from SoCal. This boat is beautiful from top to bottom.

Saw a similar boat on Lake Worth once. Loved the sound it made going across the like. Nice turbo whine.

Just like this forum needs a negative twist? When we run this boat it is either real early or near dusk, I bet we are one of the safest, most courteous boaters out there. This aint a jet ski.

Don't even want to think about how many fishing boats you could've bought for the money involved in that yellow speedster. Still would be interesting to watch it on a run sometime.

70mph on a bass boat feels like 130mph. So what does 130mph feel like... not interested - very cool but I would have to watch from a distance.

I am sure you can troll from it, Just use a very long line!

The worst times fishing are still better than the best time thinking about it.

Sweet ride. Stripes down the side kind of look like Skeeter stripes. Wonder what a trolling motor for this thing would look like. I bet 130 mph on the water is a rush. I have never done it on land! Have fun and be safe.
