JUST WONDERING HOW THIS BOAT RIDE @ 70 KNTS IN A 3-4 ' HEAD SEA..

EMTAE · 02-25-2007, 09:19 PM

I dont think it will run much over 67mph.

wbfish · 02-27-2007, 05:57 PM

9,300 lbs, I'll bet it could take a wave or two.

Those pictures were taken at the Miami Boat Show, and I was at the dock when they returned from a sea trial. With those triple 300's, the boat topped out at 75 MPH.

That boat is a machine. Rob Hammer, the captain that builds the boat, uses it a lot for the Hog's Breathe kingfish tourney out of Key West. They beat the TAR out of those boats, and this boat handles it like a man.

Amazing boat. They will be building a 33 (or 34, now I'm not sure).

CERTAINLY A GOOD LOOKING BOAT. JUST WONDERING ABOUT THOSE CONTROLS, ISONE SIDE THE GREARS AND THE OTHER THROTTLE, IF SO CAN YOU STILL SPIN THE BOAT WITH THE ENGINS.

mhinkle · 03-12-2007, 05:02 PM

it kind of reminds me of R&R boatworks, the company that bought the mold of the conch 27. they make a pretty serious 33ft'er.

Looks like the new electronic controls. When not in "sync" mode, each lever controls one of the outboard motors with the center motor locked out in neutral. Then when in sync all three run off one lever.

snakeeyes,
Those are the new electronic Mercury Verado controls. Each lever works exactly the same as a single outboard control (reverse, neutral, forward all in one control) however there are only 2 controls for the 3 motors. When both controls are pushed forward all 3 motors are engaged into forward gear. (Same with reverse) If one is pushed forward and one is pushed into reverse, the center motor stays into neutral which allows the boat to spin on a dime. As you push both throttles forward and increase speed, all 3 motors will automatically synchronize themselves to run at the exact same RPM as long as the throttle controls are within 5 degrees of each other. (They don't synchronize and run off of one control lever like the electronic CAT diesel controls do.) Hope this has made a little bit of sense.

I think they might be on to something. Of course on the web site there are tons of people with experiences on the boat at 70+ mph in 2 to 4's or bigger.

I would like to give them a try.

The speed #s are a bit deceptive on all these go-fast CCs. If you look at the pics of the invincible the T-Top is cut down, there is no coffin box, and a lot of these guys are running modified lower units (not sure about this particular one). These boats do legitimitely run in the mid 60s (MPH - cant we please use knots), however, real world you are more likely to cruise 33-40 knots. The fuel usage and general quality of the experience get to you as you get up over 40. At over 40, you are airing it out off swell, not chop when running offshore.

Haing switched to a 36 YF from a downeast, I do appreciate getting to the canyons in 2 hours, but I sure miss the wheelhouse.....
