I've been rigging my friend's 25ft 1989 Whaler for the last few weeks. It's an old tub, but he says he'll keep it till he dies. He also has over $7000 in this new aluminum trailer. Complete new interior. 1200 watt stereo, LED lighting throughout, all new Autometer guages, $1500 Livorsi controls, $2800 Lowrance GPS, fishfinder screen. And best of all! two new Mercury 300XS motors! Talk about overkill! This boat had a pair of 1989 150's on it. We were gonna run it today, but it got too late. I'm hoping for 75-80 mph, but we'll see. Here's some pics.

Let us know when you get it dialed in. We'll hook up a tube to that ski pylon and find out whose really got some nads.

Nice boat, but I don't think that it was designed to go that fast. Be careful
