Hey Robert -Ricky told me about this thread and I had to come see it for myself. 95mph is increadible!!! Guess I'll have to watch out for Hubie now. I'll be drooling until its time to trade. btw - we just got ours back in the lift for the first time since Ivan this last weekend. Actually the first time the boats been run since the storm. She ran like a top and was obviously happy to be on the water again.

Take care and tell Dano hello.

Word is the only reason Hubie traded was because you were faster. You won't be faster now unless you buy my 600 boat,then it will be equal

I think he's just gonna have to be faster for a while. Besides we've only got 80 hours on ours - clearly we need to break it in a little more before we trade it. What graphics did he get??

Reed, Hubie got the Flash graphics.
Robert, I do not thank that Reeds boat would leave the boat that Hubie traded, they were running the same props. (I may be wrong but I think 500's w/boxes and 525's w/ITS is a dead heat.
Think so?????

I hear thru the grapvine that the 600 sci's is a $100,000.00 upgrade from the stock motors,

Right specs on both boats. We never ran head to head WOT, but my impression was that we were pretty much a dead heat. We ran together all day during the poker run in Orange Beach last year and it seemed close enought that only a full on drag race would have settled it. With his new boat I guarantee that we won't be racing - more like me chasing him.

That's just crazy, $100k. I still just don't get it why Merc charges so much for the blue stuff.

But they are pretty.

That is crazy i can see maybe a $30,00.00 upgrade but that is ridiculous, Thats like a $379,000.00 dollar boat, list price
