I'll tell you what....I'd hate to be the poor sucker that says "OH this'll be no problem....that's a 70mph boat"
Man forget onboard camera, the thing would probably fly right out of his hands haha. I'd tell him to stand on land and tell the other boaters to get the heck out of the way while you make a 100+ pass.
I'll tell you, that has got to be the most impressive Hammer I have ever seen. I love the big boats, but I love the design and look of the Hammer and especially one that might see 140, thats just flat out AWESOME!

I am hoping to get the major parts by friday. Already have the carbs. I don't expect any serious gains here, just minor ones. The carbs are very tunable and come from the factory with blower calibration. The blower is larger, so hopefully, it won't have to be spun so fast to make power and the exhaust should be less of an issue.
Seems on the desk top dyno, the size of the blower, once you start with something reasonable sized, doesn't make much difference. i.e., once there is 400cfm of flow, going to a 14-71 didn't seem to make all that much difference. Absolute boost made quite a difference. Maybe when the boost gets up there, it would. Heads appear to be where it's at!
