Found my James Bond boat. Pucked up last September. Gonna buy a 60 Mercury prop and see how she does this summer. Gonna try Circle to Eagle on the Yukon. About 155 miles or so one way. Probably need about 40 gallons of gas one way. Should be an adventure!

very close in looks to my buddies sidewinder. 16ft with an evinrude 140 . hang the fuck on!

 

20ft boat 4.3 v6 , 55mph. many v8 boats can't beat it. i raced a guy down from albany , i just kept pulling away. i waited , he pulls up see what i have ,"please tell me that's not a 6 cylinder" . i popped the engine cover , he was sad. "you know how much gas i burned trying to catch you?" the v8 version of my boat is only 2 mph faster on top. my fuel economy is great , especially just cruising at 45 . i have been from the troy dam as far south as the verazzano bridge . even a touch in to the ocean but not much. open bow boat doesn't belong there. i floated in ny harbour and drank a beer. 2 weeks later was 911.

The 4.3s are great I/O engines. The Stingray's are fast boats as well. 

I barely squeak out 57-58 mph depending on load. base model 454 in a 25ft Baja . I run mine in the Sound on good days its a open bow. But it also has a 24 degree deadrise hull.

Saw this bad bitch parked in front of Old Lyme beach last year. 

I left prob 15 min before Him , he caught me at the mouth of CT river , I was going 50mph the whole time he passed me like I was standing still

My 20' tiller boat does 54.  Watching people crap as I pass them holding onto the motor is fun.

We've probably talked about it before. I used to keep my Ocean there for years in the winter. Jamie is a great dude.

you should see the look on guys faces when a kid in an aluminum 10' flat bottom jon boat with an old 6 horse Evinrude slowly buzzes by them in their 16-17ftr wit a 25 hoss on back.          some would get downright PISSED!   

  i think i was responsible for a lot of engine upgrades around the bay as a kid  lol

I put a new 9.9 Yammy 2 smoke  on an old alcan tinny,  that I could damn near lift with one hand. 

It was scary lol.
