@@jamesgilbert9254 The comment was "tongue in cheek" way of saying that I as a builder of racing engines would much rather hear the sound of the engine than the inserted musical sound bite.
I’ve never seen a multi outboard cat over 140 also this guy is in something totally different. Single engine v bottom. That’s what it’s built for and that what it’s gonna compete against. Other boats in that class. He also hit 148 with 1100. With 1350 I’m sure he’ll hit 165+
@@puttingwarheadsonforeheads9872 Without a doubt there's more speed to be found without the expense of adding more horsepower! The first thing is an engine cover with no hoodscoops and a safety cell canopy/capsule! Streamline aerodynamics and a bigger prop would enable that boat to reach hydroplane level of speed! I'm no engineer but a paper plane is a good way of understanding aerodynamics. Wind tunnel testing is definitely the best way!
Thats a lake boat😂😂😂🚢 wonder if you would gain more speed from enclosing the open cockpit and toss the extra weight 🤔 throw the seats out 😆 all joking aside that one hellofa build i see 160 coming.😊
On a non stepped hull(?) that’s insane speed. Great build well done
Is it powered by a string concerto or an internal combustion engine?
It’s the mercury 1350 racing

Don't worry, you made me laugh in agreement! Lol

Great footage & congrats.
Hell yeah brother! Good luck at LOTO shootout this year!!
Dump the music so we can hear the symphonic sounds of the engine.
If I got back into boating I would want something like this with a couple of 300Rs on it, but it is so sleek, I bet a single 500R push it really well.
This boat has never lost a race to an outboard powered boat! Multi outboard powered cats? Sure bring it on!

Awesome!
Insane
Think about this, if you wanted to listen to a symphony and there was the sound of a block chevy running, wouldnt you be pissed?
Availability?
Options?
Price?
Please let's hear the engine, its not a music video.
Rå båt!
Take my money.
