Remember when it was delivered to Daves shop brand new and his helpers were rigging it (two retired guys)

Good deal with the xs’s

Great boat! Dave gave me a ride at 125 in it!

How much fuel does the boat hold and how many gallons per hour do the motors burn? Crusing? WOT?

Not much with xs engines. They sip 87. Havasu to Topock66 and back in mine at 80-100 the entire way and it’s 14 gallons total for both engines.

87 octane? Thought they require 91?

I was always told 91 octane even with bone stock XS

I believe they are 30 gallon tanks

Not sure on the 87 deal, have only ever put 91 in it

I took it out for the first run on Saturday. It's going to take a few runs to get used to it. Not at all like my sports car Lavey, which is running better than ever with the fresh motor. Wife likes it, can't wait to make it mine with some up dates and changes. Excuse the temp Bimini borrowed from my son's boat...wifes gotta a have a Bimini.

Congrats on the great looking new boat. Where was that pic taken?

Thanks, Buena Vista Lake near Bakersfield. Kind of a crappy lake but not too far from us and easy. Mostly went to get the 280 on the Lavey broken in after the rebuild but of course had to take the new boat out and start making the list! No action pix yet...grandson loves boats.

Did you sell the Daytona?

Never had a Daytona? I have had the Lavey 20.2 Sebring in the second pic for about the last 10 years. It was on the beach at the Church meet up at Pirates. Not for sale yet but will be in the near future.

That little Vee is enough of a handful at 70 with a 200...... I can't even imagine another 80 hp on it.... Plus.... I want a tunnel. Lol!
