I have a similar pic in that same boat with the previous owner driving it on Havasu

 

[02HoWaRd26]

I had a 33 Daytona. It ran 133 with 700’s. 900’s will do 140’s no problem.

At 10psi they were dyno’d at 1250+ issue was the bravo style drives boat really needed #6’s
I’ve been just over 150 in the boat.

Well I had a small buzz so I could have missed the details. I do remember wind removing bikini tops.

Yes the wind between the canopies into the center seat it worked every time, flawlessly

 

[Boat211]

116 - Revenge K-Boat. There was pedal left but that was enough for me. The acceleration was ridiculous at any speed.

 

[Hava-Schiada]

109 in a 21’ TT Schiada V-Drive

 

[Mike K]

112 mph (gps) In a 39 Velocity triple back in 2005 during Desert Storm.

 

[MAXIMUS]

34.3 MPH in a twin screw Schiada fully trimmed on race gas in the summer of 2014 at the Parker strip going against traffic...

1 more off the bucket list!

 

[toyaddiction]

152 as a passenger in a M35 with 1350's We were just cruising.

138 driving in my 33 Daytona with Stage 3 700's

An under 20 foot boat with 800 hp is still way more fun but only for an hour

 

[Headless hula]

Went around 90 with Dennis in his mach 22.

 

[nordic454]

112 in a 26 American Offshore at Lake Mead with 3’ chop. Very impressed with the ride and quality of that boat.

 

[Waterheater]

156 in the Lick This Skater. Back when the original owner had it in 2000. That was a long time ago.

 

[MCnParker]

Mid 90's in stoker making passes by Roadrunner, in the Mid 90's...

 

[snowhammer]

Didn't confirm it with GPS, but I got well into double digits in the dinghy

 

[mash on it]

Passenger- 92 or so. Tunnel hull jet.

Driver, 71.8, on the Colorado river, down casino row/Davis camp. Also jet. Also built it.

[OldSchoolBoats]

116 on Havasu

28' Howard Bullet - Quad rotor 565

That is freaking quick for that boat!

 

[Deception88]

150 mph 28 Daytona Tall Deck

 

[wayniac]

All my fastest times I have been a passenger.

102 in a Hondo Flat bottom. Not sure of the power. It was absolutely crazy and violent from start to finish.
107 In a 27 Ultra Stealth
75 behind the Ultra on an inner tube... probably not the best of decisions.

 

[Wicky]

99.4 gps All day long...all summer long...except for the panic slow down before crashing into a wakeboard boat wake. Then it's 75mph through the air.

 

[Classic Daycruiser]

62 mph.

 

[92562]

That is freaking quick for that boat!

Same boat did 122 with Bob Teague at the wheel on the River for the Power Boat tests back in '05 or '06. Boat was smooth!

 

[Gelcoater]

Do you know What motor/drive they are putting in that new 21 they are building?

Not exactly. But, I know it’s going to Teague

Did you tell him to slow down? [emoji23]
90 in 2nasty is right where the fun starts.

Yep. Quite honestly I did. Wasnt too long after that we took 2 over the bow. Wakeboard boats on parker.


If we were out early in the am, would've been a different story.

Dennis is good guy

 

[ClownRoyal]

Inside the river house when I hear the neighbor fire up his boat, and he starts doing some hot laps. It was late afternoon and I had a few beverages in me...so I grab my life jacket, then wave him down. My wife wasn’t happy.

When he dropped the hammer (I think he was trying to scare me), all I could see was the sky, the nose was so high in the air. I was giggling like a little kid...it was awesome.

All I know was that the water was a blur, he thought somewhere in the low 100’s. I don’t even know what kind of boat it is, flat bottom V drive with a gigantic motor in the back, that you can hear 5 miles away, and shakes river house windows. Lol

Onboard original Predator in 2003. I have one from the next year at 171...but I need to recover the photos on that drive.

 

[Deja_Vu]

Only 65 mph on Havasu in my last '99 Essex 21' Sterling with the 350 MAG MPI right before we caught air crossing the Casino Ferry wake

That fkn boat is rad! I have drooled on it both times I've seen it!

 

[monkeyswrench]

Holy F'n Hell! Some of these numbers are incredible. 125-175 on flat, paved...wonderfully stable...asphalt, is a rush. To me, fast cars have been my "fix". The ever-changing surface and general lack of suspension seems a harsh combination to overcome. Not to mention, I get tossed around by roll bar boats at 45-50...one of those jackholes can ruin your day at real speeds.

 

[SBMech]

125+ Southwind tunnel on Naci, my friend Dan's boat. Had to be 1600+ HP 1471 blown BBC.

Scary as fuck going that fast in 10 seconds 3 inches above the water.

About 150ish in Howard Arneson's 32' Skater in the Delta of Nor Cal back in 1990 or 1991. Cool dude, met him at a boat show and he took my girlfriend, her bother and I for a ride on the boat shown here.

https://www.howardarneson.com/articles/fireonmiss.asp

It was a dog until about 70 MPH then stupid fast until 150. It was hard to breath sitting next to the turbine intake and air blowing over our heads. Sunglasses were lost around 130 MPH, couldn't see shit after that as the wind got under my eyelids.
