The whole ad is weird. A Twin Step Tiger with 900's will run a HELL OF ALOT faster than 89mph, but the drives wouldn't last a weekend. It didn't have 900's when I saw it. Maybe the guy needs to get out of it fast so it's priced to sell.

That's about an hour from me. If someone is serious, I'd take a peek at it .

Not for me, but thank you for offering Bryan. I was just curious because I've always loved that boat...

It's named "Bravo Eater"

The ad looks fishy to me, maybe a northern "BeavBoats" guy.

That boat with 900's should be well in excess of 100 mph. But Brandon and crew are right, the drives wouldnt last you one trip out.

Do you think he means 900 total hp? With 900 total wouldn't the boat run about 80mph?

That boat is a 2001 Lip-Ship Tiger T/S with 675 KE's. The boat would run close to 89mph with that power. My guess is the HP in the ad is wrong. It was the brochure boat.
