Talked to the guy today, real nice fella. this would be a great boat for someone. He's got alot of cashish in the motor. claimed it topped out at 135, i thought those hulls flipped over at 125, so i was told.

Got some good setup tips though. thanks wafflebaby. andy

Mark Bates was a hired gun driver, never met him but I did meet some of his family, I have heard nothing but good things about him.  Back to the boat 135mph ( ebay speed)Not saying this is not true but I would have to see that in person until I banked on that.  crazy.gif

135 does sound a little fast for that sled. But it is a cool boat! :smile16:
