I hope your life insurance is paid up.  I can't imagine that kinda power in that hull.  But regardless -- enjoy the ride.   :thumbup:

Just built a 468 BBC in my 72 Horizon and its running 65mph without a place divertor.  Hoping to find a god used place Divertor soon.  I love the hull and shape of the horizon. ^-^

When I got the boat, I gotta say I didnt like the way it looked at all, but it's growin on me. It is very wide and roomy, and does look sweet in the water.I gotta research the Horizon, not familiar with the design. You got any pics of yours Horizonjet?

Here is a few that I got and the only info. I could find on it.  I fell in love with the design when I first saw it mostly cause there is not anything else that shape, it is almost flat on bottom and the curved transom.  Interested in any pics you might have.
