Hello new to group. Just got a 16’ mantra tunnel, anyone know anything about this hull?

Don’t know how to post pics. Just wondering if anyone knows about these boats

Thanks TrollerDave. What is a gull wing?

Thanks, didn’t know if it was another name for tunnel hull or not. Gonna try to post some pics of mine tomorrow

Some more pics. Gotta scrounge up a motor now

So it looks like it’s actually a 18’ tunnel. A few manufacturers made them with a tweak here and there, but for the most part the same.

One thing to be aware of, is their reputation for hooking on shut down after a fast run. If you do  a search for CP Tunnel you should find some threads about them on SCJB and Performance Boats. There is an extension they add to the front of the sponsons that is supposed to help shutdown. So much that I think California Performance added it’s to the mold for the hull. 
Here is one thread.

Now ya got me worried! No its measures 16.6 ft. From what I have found it is an old drag boat. Its got a berkeley 12JG/ R pump on it. I'm just wanting to run 60 or 70 mph

Hey I appreciate the responses, just trying to get all the info I can. Not trying to break any speed records, just wanting a little ripper for around the home lake.  Lol

Is that your boat in your avistar? Looks nice! Is it a tunnel hull
