All the jet boat guy, think that there boats go fast. Almost all of there boats go 90+. And then they think that they can beat a bass boat. When 90% of them go about 80+ maybe. I had a little 18' jet with a 460, that was built. It when 82mph and I still lost(rasing a bass boat) I guess it's all in what the boat is. BEcause I have a bass boat OR not. I bass fish out of my twin, at the river. And my new jet will be has fast has my twin (jet with 1400hp ) It's just funny!!

There's speed, and there's performance... With performance comes style, comfort, and dependability.
I'd rather go 60+ all day than 80+ for a few minutes before something breaks...

Yup, I love turning the key and taking the family out and run 60, not have to refuel after one run down the lake, and be able to do that each time out......My jaw drops hearing all the outdrives that break on a regular basis. I can handle my emotions for not arriving to the sandbar first

Just get an Outerlimits powerboat. It has luxury, speed, and tons of room for everyone. It will only set you back at about $600k.
