That was our boat. The year was 96. What did you think of it?

We did set a speed record with it one week after it arrived here. Poole UK to Cherbourg France in 62 minutes. We didn't race it but used it for corporate hospitality and as our school boat for our raceboat driving school.

That's the boat. At the time of my ride it had no rear hatch, no rear seats just the unfinished front bolsters and no wind screen. Was the fastest I had gone in a boat a the time too. The motors had just gone in the boat that morning. Wow, that is a ride I will never forget.

Took this pic of my 41 the day I went for a ride in your boat

You had a run in our boat before we did!

We ran the boat with the Volvos through 2001 when we had it converted by Cougar to a single engine boat, very much like the single engine 32 Steve built for us in 97.

The engines came out and went into the boat that I still race in.

Have always admired the 41 by the way.

Peter is very much so correct,the more power the better the boat feels and reacts to all water conditions,it will eat up some huge water and fly level over the biggest of swells,it is like a 22 footer with a 450 hp V8 Outboard on Steroids.The way the bottom is configured it is just plain fun to run in all water conditions although I dont know how much faster I am going to try and go with it because Steve Stepp seems to think that I am probably just about at the limit of a 320s potential.I am thinking of going to a 41 but I am hesitant because of the fun factor that this boat provides. Who is going to go to the North Caroliona run with Steet and the boys,we are thinking of going down.
