Is that yours? What power? What drive?

That all white one belongs to a guy named Gary in New York. Mine is in production right behind his should be done sometime in April. Gary is going with the new Merc 600SCI, I'm going with a Leon Dereberry 572ci 725HP,non blown for now. Mine will be white also. Undecided about graphics.
Oh, the Race boat belongs to the legendary John Cohen, founder and builder of Superboats. 4 Offshore World Championships and dozens of national titles.
The Y2K is my dream boat...fast, smooth in the rough and trailerable. If I only had the $$$ I'd buy an all red one in a heartbeat.
I assume the guy with the 600SCI will have a Bravo 1 behind it.
What are you driving with your 572? 750hp sounds like too much for a Bravo.
Gary's going with a Stellings 12" set back box and XR drive.
I'm using Imco 12" box and XR drive.
I had an XR on my American Offshore with blown 700hp for 100hrs until I sold it. If you drive it right it will last. John, and alot of offshore racers use the XR in 8' seas racing with the HP525. Now that's impressive.
racing in 8' seas is amazing in itself...
You need to post a review here when you've gotten a few hours on your new Y2K.
I'll post some rigging pics soon.
What will your's weigh fully rigged? I was thining 4,500lbs...
Your gonna be real close. Mine will be full race foam and balsa cored hull. Gary's will be a pleasure hull non cored. I know that John had to add weight to his boat just in front of the engine to meet the F1 class rules last year, and he still has a v-birth and bench's on his race boat. Not a hollowed out cabin as alot of race boats are.
