Hi Gentleman:
My apologies I am not on the site as much as I would like and my plate is full. I will do my best to get back as soon as I can!
Ok with that said here you go. The boat cruises at 30MPH at 3100RPM with a burn of 7GPH. Full throttle 40MPH at 4200RPM with a burn rate of 10 to 12GPH. This vessel has the most torque you will even feel out of a boat with over 400 ft-lb. I believe close to 460 ft-lb have to look at the spec sheet at the shop but very close.
To answer the other gentlemen questions. We use Plexus 560 to bond to the stringers. Those photos were from a few years ago, we now use an air plexus gun which our forearms thanked us because doing it manually sucks. We then fiberglass the perimeter with multiple layers of 1708 tabbing under vacuum bag this includes into the gutters. We have a mold of the gutter that we jam into the gutter area again under vacuum so when cured we remove the gutter mold and we have a mint molded new gutter with minimal fairing to the gunnels. There is another video from the TV show on YouTube which shows much more of the details into this build. Let me know if you have any questions. Also go to our Facebook page at
