Why is every other boat in its class 3-4,000 lbs lighter? 900 HP and it's borderline underpowered. Lets see some true performance numbers on that rig. I'll bet top end is mid, maybe upper 40's & 100 GPH. With 900 HP, the competition is cruising at 50 MPH & 40-50 GPH.

But if your dropping almost a half Mil on a rig, you may not be concerned about fuel consumption. But I'll bet you would want to climb out of the mid 30's for cruise speed and top out at more than mid 40's. That boat needs either 350 SCI's or quad 300's.
