Re: Magic duplicated my boat in seconds flat!
Daves personal 29 DCB runs 123 mph with 525's. That does not sound like bad performance does it?
BTW, What about Bob Teagues comments, or is he not a knowledgable because his shop is on the West Coast?

1. I love all the pretty West Coast boat thingies
2. I will ignore all the stepped hull spinouts from now on and drink Koolaid when I am told.... Like a good soldier.
There isn't that better?

Get off you Skater high horse and how about having an open mind about other boats and stepped bottoms.

ARE YOU FRIGGIN KIDDING ME??????????????
What a B.S, statement that is. I was in a Tiger with twin 1,000's yesterday (with HavasuCig) and we went to Catalina and that boat drank ALOT of fuel. We were running hard.
It is impossible for 3x 300's to use more fuel than twin 1,000's!!!!!!!!!!

Buy your boats based on your own decisions/likes and dislikes...... not P.B's...... but be informed and listen to more than one source. If nothing else I give y'all something to ponder occasionally...... Eh?

P.S. I notice when I'm in California , I look more youthful and stylish but I can't seem to run as fast.
