    Is that the motors that potentially make 10hp? I wanted to put one in my 41inch aeromarine sprint cat, and even debated twins. Looking forward to seeing this. I wouldn't even want to attempt to run a boat at 100+mph (although I'd like to one day) hats off to you for attempting this. Looking forward to it and good luck.

      Yes potentially 10 HP but I am pretty sure that is on 12's The truth is I can shoot for 100 MPH talk is cheap !!! but 90 would sure put a smile on my face and make my knees weak LOL But 100 sounds better and is a nice challenge thanks Guys

            Your not going to get a straight up setup as not many people haven't done a 100 mph. Their going to send ideas but many are just trial and error for you. Which will cost you money and fustration. Alot of folks have spent $1000's with bad results and are not going to give any proven ideas. IMO. Power to weight ratio is a key!!!! Also weight placed in the proper areas and hull design. I not up on that hull design but it looks like it will explode on impact at 100. Keepin the hatch on will be tough. My 2 cents. Ask Manuel and the Europeons. They give the correct setup and you will have to apply. Easier said then done. Good luck, MM.

                I think he dropped out of FE ... much harder than he thought.
