hey its your story --but sorry not a chance at those #'s as described above.Ive driven a dozen v-kings with different set ups and hp.... A light comp shines in acceleration not necessarily a lot bigger top end. Can you give me the specs on your set up. Thanks

1988 V-King YT w/ 2.4l 175 hp Merc. I've played with several nice props and the best GPS speed has been 82 mph. The hull was flying very nicely.

Re: Almost 90 MPH
Ok The 150 mention is not 150hp, it has been worked
Money was never a big motivation for me, except as a way to keep score. The real excitement is playing the game.

Re: Almost 90 MPH
yeah, a 150 on an 18 footer at 80ish is doing great, unless the motor is seriously warmed up. i have noticed, after looking at one poster above, that is seems like the vking yt's are always running at 80-84 with 150-175 hp. they are always right at that number. i noticed also with the vipers that if they are pretty standard motor heights and with a 115-140 without a jack plate, it seems like they all run at 58-61. anybody else notice that?
