Is that in the Florida keys? How increadably awsome would that be for a morning outing! Just you a buddy, unlimited miles of smooth water and 3000+hp at your disposal!
This boat has 1550 hp Sterlings and those are # 6 drives. The 8 drive has a different torpedo shape and an upswept cavitation plate at the rear. I am pretty certain they had the drives beefed up to handle the 1550 hp but it is really torque that is the deciding factor. If you look at the video when they are tightening the prop nuts it is clearly a 6 drive. John Tomlinson may be the best throttle /setup guy in the business. I have no doubt about the numbers. Wannabe on Offshore only.
Thats impossible since the 1350's come with the M8 drive which is a step above the 6 due to the #6 not being able to handle the top end power output of the 1350. I went to Havasu this year and spoke with Fred Kiekhaefer for about a half hour on the subject of their higher end packages including the 1350, 1100 and their S/C offerings like the 1075 and such. In testing the 1350 package with #6 drives, they lasted no longer then the test itself before various breakage issues occured.
OH sorry guyz Posted before I saw tomlison at the end. He's the man I believe it. Sorry to sound like a youtube newb. AND TOMLISON bring somethin sick to Sarasota this year....PLZ...
daaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaamn! Puts my 10hp single-cylinder diesel 5knots into perspective :P Well done guys, hope you get more flat-calm days and hit that 2ton mark ;)
@sirop86 Race gas, horsepower and torque, pal, that's what it takes in a piston engine. Personally I would rather have turbines running those speeds. It's too easy to blow a piston motor at 7500-8000rpms it takes to run 200 and they're not cheap to replace.

I can't believe that there were no comments on this clip!! That is sure one sweet ride. 193 mph on mild chop, nice. I bet it'd go another 5 faster on glassy water.. Monochromatic paint turned out very well. Need some info on powerplants, etc...

I see the boat has the #6 drives from Mercury, what engines is it running? My guess is the 1075's or 1200 units.

How is it possible to reach such speeds with a 4-stroke engine? Other boats i have seen uses turbine engine to upptain speeds in the 200mph range.

@BuzzDyou No it wouldn't. Glass water is sticky, holding the boat down instead of freeing it up to run.
Engines are 1550hp Sterlings hooked up to Merc 6 drives.
