I hate to say it but hes not going all that fast. 67 mph with a 200 merc is actually an embarrassment. That same motor on a Hybrostream Viking, Ae-21 or HST would be well over 100 mph. The HST probably over 120. These hulls were obsolete by 1975 when the Vectors hit the water. It is a pretty nice boat but don't ever run a Hydrostream with it because they'll run off and leave you.
@crossbow3410 These hull where originally designed by Howard Pipcorn and called the Ventura and Ventura II. He sold these molds when he created the Vector because they were a lot faster. Then he created the Viking (which is what I have) and they were even faster than the Vectors were. I'm in the process of finishing mine with a 200XS on a 12 inch Gill bracket, Hydrostream says I'll be in the 100+ mph club abd they want the Video and GPS to varify. 97 with a 250? A hydrosteam would do about 110.
