@thebigmann25 Top speed is unknown. We have not exceeded 90MPH as this is not a race boat. Other race boats of simular deisign run 130 mph.

[thebigmann25]

it should fly...add wings, and some friendly flight attendants! Hell, you could even draw yourself a little logo! don't forget the stale peanuts for the attendants to offer!

Funny how some people want to cry and make threats about the noise level of a turbine engine. If they knew half as much as they thought they would know that turbine engines of this size don't put out any more noise than many of the big blocks running. Ever been behind the back of a boat running twin 525's... Yeah its just as loud if not louder. Plus the exhaust tone of a turbine is a much higher pitch, so the sound doesn't travel as far. From a distance the turbine will seem quiet

I sure would like to build one of those, I've always been fascinated with turbine technology, I have expensive taste, I just don't have that kind of money. I still enjoy watching people show their's off.

@rednoseroxy Cry baby. If you shot at my boat you'd spend the next 25-30 years of you life in prison....And you don't want to know what you'll have to do to pay "taxes" to your cell-mate Bubba.
