Sure that is a 35?? Looks like a 33 10 meter, 1985-88. Trs drives( unless swapped for bravos) Should run in the mid 70's with the power. Good looking old boat, def is a EX.. Regardless of what has been said in the tabs, fountain isn't going anywhere. Reggie is a damn good business man, is playing the game.. None the less good look fountain.. Noah, def keep updates on this build.. Sounds like it could get good..

indeed john, you are right about the outdrives; they are brovo's, but the swim platform that we added is ~ 2 feet long. so it's technically 35 feet long, but it is a 10 meter hull. 1985 year-model. you know your boats pretty well. the motors are somewhere around 485 HP, and they've got stainless marine headers and freshly rebuilt holley 850s. it will plane out pretty darn quick carrying eight people. to be honest, i've never run a gps while in the boat, so i don't have a clue what it'll run at top speed.

Noah, sounds like your in for a ride man, pics of the progress for sure. Bak in the late 70's(b4 i was born) My father had a 17 ft youngblood v drive that was running 128 in the 1/4.. There is just something about speed and the river that is a THRILLL

Not sure the class, it was mostly a bar hopping boat( I am serious) From what he told me it was a 427 that would rev to the moon. I will try to get specs on it from him tom.. I am dead honest on the mph, guys used to come from miles to try it out, back then it was verified on radar, no gps then( back in the day) But I have reason to believe him, he has been into fast boats his whole life, is what got me into them.. Again I will try to pick his brain... That boat you have is with out a doubt a fast hull. Tunnels are prob the top of the chain, even more so then a full cat.. You put 300 hp on it, will see tripple digis no prob..
