checked fountains web site. only has 42 w/575's. says 86+

just buy fountaindriver's 42 and be done with it 130mph+

I would think 800hp is the range. XR may be a problem. Go with staggered for sure.

Pair-a-dice 2000 with 900sc (850hp) light lay-up, full cabin did 117mph.

Sounds like my next boat if there is one!

Bone, did you sell your 46 Sea Ray?

tomtbone1993

Not yet, alot of phone calls, It is killing me!!!!!!!!!!!

sorry to hear, just nosey. Did you try Boat Trader, Yacht trader? There was a thread on the best medium for advertising just recently.
Mike Livorsi told me once that yacht trader was the best he thought.
