How big of a roost does that twin throw?
My friend's naturally aspirated jet has been clocked at 118 mph.
And to answer your subject title of "are these boats any good?", dollar for dollar, no they aren't any good. They don't throw a roost, they can't run in shallow (less than a foot) river water, they cost a mininum of $3,000 every time they go to the shop, they cost a fortune to buy, and they're difficult to work on. Other than those ugly things hanging off of the back, they're good looking boats.
I'm gonna try and keep my mouth shut on this one.....OK..I tried...where do you get this mininum of 3K every time it goes in the shop? You can rebuild the whole motor for that...But then again I guess thats the only time one is in the shop is when the motor is worn out...difficult to work on? Thats why I have one 'cause the only thing I wanna work on at the lake is my buzz...The roost and low water has already been addressed....As far as cost goes...There is that old saying...Ya' get what ya' pay for...
