I was a very fortunate passenger in a 39 Rockit with 725 Illmors at LOTO last weekend.
All I can say is AMAZING!!!
This boat had the padded floor option which as simple of a concept is, was genius. Its essentially a 3/4 - 1" mat, like a wrestling mat under the carpet. Absorbs the bumps and saves your body. Fit and finish of the boat was incredible. The lines of the deck are beautiful and reminded my friend of the Stingray/Corvette.
The Illmors sound is spectacular and they actually drop 5 cylinders at idle. Sound a little off, until you realize what they are doing.
I have a friend with an 09 Top gun with 700's and NXT drives and the Rockit is faster and better riding boat for what what we were in. It was very rough due to cruisers and this boat ate it up!!
Im still thinking about it. . . . hell of a boat for a lot less than a Cig. Seems like an obvious choice.
Thank you to Hustler, and George at Anchor Performance Sales for letting me experience the best boat I've ever riden in to date!

We are going to find that answer out pretty soon. I am currently building a pair of 1100-1150 hp engines for a 39' Rockit now. We are going to set them up at that power level to start, with the ability for quite a bit more if wanted or needed. This will be the biggest power put in a Rockit to date. The engines will be on the dyno in a few weeks. The finished boat will be in Hustler's booth in the Miami Boat Show.
The customer traded in his 388 Slingshot for the Rockit. He has riden in the Rockit several times and can't say enough great things about the boat. It should be a quick one. I'm really looking forward to it.
