I'm glad we have our 282. In the end it's the boating lifestyle we prefere.

that is crazy Matt! I use to know someone on LOTO's that had a 43ft outerlimits with twin 750's . It would do about 115mph and I rode on it once and had to about change my shorts when we got back to the docks. Doing 100+ MPH jumping cruiser wake is not for me

If you think you’re habing a bad day (except for sailor today) just save this pic and look at it. Tried to come in the wrong side of the inlet and ended up high and dry on the rocks for 2 weeks. Hauled up and in Saturday. I heard excessive lemonade may have contributed. Not following Nav Aids definitely contributed.

Not for my wife either. Part of the reason we sold ours.

Nice. In the old days eliminator used to be made a hour away from me. Great boat. It sure is purdy
Purdy yes. But after a day let's just say if Cobalt was involved in interiors these boats would be worth the $$

Just a tired old Chris Craft.
Matt that is wild! I can be happy now under 100 mph...on the water anyway.

Cool pics Matt...I agree...it would be fun for a day but that's definitely a different style of boating.

I think that yellow boat is afraid of hanging with the bb boys. He goes out at night to hide.
Lol.

Cruise speed in my friends eliminator with twin 825 TCM motors was 2500 rpm at 58 mph.
4000 rpm was 90

Oh just so cool Matt. What an opportunity! Thanks for posting. I would have enjoyed that immensely....my wife, well ...not so much.
( but in the end, I’m more about water sports over go-fast boats. Still
Loce our 263.)
