With a pair of 300-hp Mercury outboards, Dave's Custom Boats' Mach 22 has the speed to blow away just about anything.
Guys who own boats with roaring supercharged or twin turbocharged big-blocks don't take kindly to getting passed by speedsters with screaming outboards.
If the outboards happen to be twin Mercury Hi-Performance 2.5 Drag SS motors and they're bolted to the transom of a Dave's Custom Boats Mach 22, those big-block guys won't have much choice except to go down valiantly in defeat. The Mach 22, you see, was the fastest boat at our little shindig, wringing
down the Parker strip section of the Colorado River at 124.2 mph on Stalker radar. That's six mph faster than the closest blown big-block-powered boat in our fleet.
Price as Tested
$77,605
HP as Tested
600
Top Speed
124.2 MPH

RD that sounds great 124.2 with 2 factory race outborads ,what happend to a stock deal,how long did it take to get to 124ish ,there is a lot of variables HP TO LBs
at castaic last sat we blastad on GPS WITH ONLY ONE OF THOSE ROARING SUPERCHARGED MOTORS A 137MPH @only 6300 rpm still had engine but no more lake did not even see an outboard boat (TOTAL COST OF THIS BOAT IS $90,000.00 ish) LETS SEE$ 90,00.00-$77,600.00 =not exactley 1/2 LETS C $12,400(P.S.RD i used to race outboard class and i love them,owned 3 outboard boats,still have 1 for sale, outboard boats tend to be much lighter ,because the typicaly do not have the torque ,real weight sensitive.a H T M is a large 24FT not exactly light boat,i will bet that 22 dcb is about 1000lb lighter?RD what type of boat do u own .cant wait 2 take u for a test ride. talk 2 u later.
Mr.Pump, I'm just messin with ya... don't get all upset. Your right the DCB is fairly pricey with twins at 74K...
How about a 21' Liberator with Twins right around 50K (just about 1/2 price) and that will be right at the 120mph in the 1/4 mile! http://free.***boat.net/ubb/biggrin.gif (Not full blown race motors either I might add, just a couple of 2.5's "slightly modified")
As far as what kind of boat do I drive?
http://home.socal.rr.com/boatbutts/RD003.jpg
Some call it "Da Good Kind"
http://home.socal.rr.com/boatbutts/RD004.jpg
I call it "Da B*tch Magnet"
http://home.socal.rr.com/boatbutts/RD002.jpg
And right about that far away is when you feel your clothes start to vibrate from the stereo. http://free.***boat.net/ubb/biggrin.gif and it ain't "Frumpy Lookin."

mrpumps HTM, You have one impressive HTM. 137mph and still climbing...WOW. If you don't mind, I would like to know some more about your HTM. Specifically,
1. You cubic inch
2. Blower size, max boost and overdrive %
3. Hyd. or solid cam, profile if you have it
4. type of heads
5. how much HP
6. type of outdrive
7. Prop pitch and gear ratio
8. Ever calculated your slip %
It seems to me that you could reset the unofficial single engine cat speed record of 143mph, which was set by an HTM. What do you think?
I would love to blast down the river side by side with you at 100+ sometime.
See Ya.

RD DUDE SWEET RIDE&CUTE PUPPY OH YA THE CHICKS ARE HOT 2.............WHATS UP WITH THAT WATER ITS GREEEEEEEEEEEN GOT BAG ON SOMETHING!!!!!U KNOW HTM PEOPLE, just kidding not to worry just having some fun PS WHAT IS A LIBERATOR????????? send pic LATE
at castaic last sat we blastad on GPS WITH ONLY ONE OF THOSE ROARING SUPERCHARGED MOTORS A 137MPH @only 6300 rpm still had engine but no more lake did not even see an outboard boat (TOTAL COST OF THIS BOAT IS $90,000.00 ish) LETS SEE$
Hold on bud.. gotta do some research.. (Papa always said, don't argue a point without the facts!)
"BIG SUCKER MARINE TOLD ME" (Actual HTM Dealer.)
90 MPH - Carbuerated 565 - 625 hp low 90's = 73,750$$ motor, 18K upgrade Which by the way puts the base motor package in my mind at a WHOPPING TOTAL OF 55,750 for a baseline HTM.. (Pretty Damed Expensive if you ask me..)
120 MPH - 1000hp = 92K (Gauranteed 120mph)
Now let's tack on another 17mph... I think your 90K ish just turned into more like 100K ish... Probably more like 105 - 110Kish... http://free.***boat.net/ubb/biggrin.gif
56K (I round up) for a baseline HTM that we'll say runs around what 60-65mph?
VS
55Kish (as you like to say) for a 128mph liberator with Twin O/B's OOOORRRRR...
A 22.6 Nordic for 55K that'll do 72mph and well..... We don't want to get into the aesthetics department....
Movie Quote time for Havasu Hangin over there... "Don't mess with the bull son you'll get the horns." How many movies can you think of? I got two already. http://free.***boat.net/ubb/biggrin.gif
I swear to god I kill myself on these boards.. Either that or MR.Pump really will Kill me when we go for a ride!! http://free.***boat.net/ubb/biggrin.gif If you put on a lifeline jacket or anything I'm gettin outta the boat!
MrPump, I'm just joking with ya.. I hope you realize that.. Don't take it personal, I wouldn't joke if I didn't like ya. I think it's great what you guys are doing with the racing etc... and overall I think there nice boats..

Those pics were taken in Lake Havasu, about a month ago... I'll post up some pics of a liberator for you shortly..
Once again, I hope you don't take this stuff personally, I was just "Funnin Ya." I know plenty of people with HTM's that swear by them.
However after I get my Liberator, I'll be "Gunnin For Ya!" http://free.***boat.net/ubb/biggrin.gif
