Same boat that went 103 a few yrs back...........a little disappointing this yr, but still over a hundo, I think the boat will run 125 with these engines and the right tune,

Bravo X drives? Not going to last at that power level. If you’re going to put in big power you’re going to have to hang some big drives off the back. Bravo XRs fail all the time at their max rated HP of 600.

I like the idea but a repower is way more than bolting in different motors. Rigging, plumbing, drives, steering if it’s not already hydraulic...

oh oh and how could I forget.... finding that perfect x dimension to obtain said speeds

Having said that some #6s on the back would be siiiiiiiiiiiiick

I would NOT recommend bullet motors. Too many horror stories of motors slapped together with mismatched parts, used etc.
You must be in Canada, so I would look at Marine Extreme in Montreal, they deal in go fast boats. Or for more intimate motor builder, AKracing in lake simcoe.

Great boat that will be a blast at 90+ but you really need to break 100 to be happy, which is fine but you think your drive issues are a problem now it's know going to get worse, everything about going fast gets worse, breaks more, and requires more maintenance, whatever you are thinking in your head just triple it. And everything takes longer than you expect it too.

Normally it's always better to buy a boat that already does what to want.

Personally I love the 35 outlaw so if you really think you want to dump about 100k+ into your boat than sweet let us help you spend your money!

I have heard mixed reviews about Bullet. What will you do if there is an issue and your builder is 1000+ miles away in another country??

The 700/NXT 35 OL's will touch a 100mph.

Chad's engines are a lot more than standard Whippled 525's.

You're only 150 miles from one of the best shops in the country, Young Performance in Nashville Tn!
