This 1986 technology hull is resisting the 100mph with all its mite. 
According to the math I should have reached a 100mph at 5600rpm.
Starboard hit 6100
Port 6300rpm and still 95mph.wap wap waaaa
That was with a 15* rake 18x32 5blade.
98.6MPH was with a 18x29 18* rake 5 blade... so it likes higher rake.
I wanted to hit 100mph with my everyday set up. I guess I could take all the filler peices, blankets, memory foam, cushions, pillows , anchors etc out of it to see if I can squeeze out another 1.5mph.

You won't hit 100 as long as you keep those women around with all those tattoos I hear that tattoos will slow down a boat..... LOL.....................
