That is a Allison drag boat with live wells on it.  I really would not call them bass boats.  They will move.  clap.gif

I was going to say looks purpose build for speed with the flat deck and covered and sealed storage compartments.  Probably has a 200-300 hp outboard outback or twin engines to get it to move that fast.

At first I was going to say that's not moving that fast then realized that 120 was his top speed and didn't get to see that real speed until the end.

tandem 2 seater, allison bass racer...I was riding in the back seat, pilot was @ 96mph.....as he leaned to show me the speedometer, the boat would actually rock to the left...I acknowledged the speed (as he was showing off for me) he then trimmed it up a bit, and the gearcase blew out, the boat nose-dived and turned immediately left...I went right. Last time in an outboard for me. :smile26:

2.5 merc, around 400hp, with spray....thankfully he never opened the bottle... :smile20:

It is suppose to be a Stroker Bass boat with center steer and a 3.2 Merc, not an Allison. Same discussion came up on the other site. Either way I think it is a bit of a stretch to call it a "bass boat"

Oh come on, it is a blast  :smile16:
Well if you put one of those wing thingies on it maybe! :smile16:

I will borrow a 22p yamaha drag prop on it so I can get it to shot high out of the water.  :smile16:  I am making some modifications to it hoping to get 15 more mph out of her.  I had a guy show me a trick.  :smile16:
