sure,its a 29 foot kryptonite f1 series (no radio or cusions in the cabin or on engine hatch) actually its 27 ft with a 2 ft built in swim platform to make it 29ft.single procharged (m1sc) 500hp carbed motor .060 over with edlebrock heads and about 6.5 lbs boost made low 700s hp on the dyno.bravo 1 1.50 ratio.spinning a box stock 33 hydromotive qiv.boat weighs around 4500dry.kryptonite has i think one of the fastest v hulls out there.check them out at kryptoniteboats.com .my boat is the all yellow one in the owners gallerie and more pics of it when you click on 29 sport series even though its the f1 series.hey kirk does this get me a discount on a new drive,just kidding.sean

Never hurts to have a good fast hull, boy I miss my Daytona. Good luck on the drive, I had good luck with xz (in the Daytona) and XR in the Pantera, 650 sc ponies in each boat.

The krytonite 27 (28) is a fast hull, it also handles rough water well. We have a customer with a stock HP 525 and it runs 88-89 with a labbed hydro P5.

I love the looks of the kryponite! And watching Randy and Glen run Typhoon in F1 was awesome.
Have you thought of going to a 1.36 ratio? Would give you a little more room to play with if you ever put more power to it. Just a thought.
