The 21' and under 70+ mph Boat pic thread

[sintax]

Is that first "Instagram" pic real? I know that is your boat but, it that your pool? Did you set this up? I want the story!!

If this shit is real and you did this.. YOU SIR, WINNNN THE INTERNET!!

I think I recall the story, if my memory is correct they hired a crane to drop it in there?

Saw you on the freeway last Saturday on the 60/57. Great looking boat.

Not a 21 but my old talon 22 with 300xs. Hit 96 probably could have got to 100 with more fine tuning. Wish I never sold that one. Boat was completely redone including trailer.

So cool. This should happen there more often

 

[4Waters]

It ran 68 on GPS but conditions weren't perfect so 70 should be obtainable

 

[BigRedBryan]

So cool. This should happen there more often

I completely agree

Various boats that meet the criteria we've been involved with over the years.

 

[was thatguy]

The Miller has gone 86 on gps.
I wring it out everytime I drive it.
80-85 is a consistent top speed. It picked up nearly 15 MPH after Josh and Tom cut the bottom and machined the plate and shoe.
Like a completely different boat.
I’ve had this boat over 15 years now. The only thing I haven’t changed is the gel.

Holy shit! That's my old boat! I was wondering just the other day where she was and if someone was taking care of her!!

Hooky day on the delta, 2016.

Red bluff like 2011 or whenever the last race was.
256 mph as I recall?

One of the funnest boats I’ve ever owned.
72’ (?) Eliminator true flat. No pedal, just a handle. Solid lifter LS6 with dual points and an 850 Holley. In like 5 years I think I ran the valves once just out of guilt, and can’t really remember if I ever changed the oil.
Bought it turn key for like $5K from Rick King, had rat teeth marks all over the bow point, zero frills, came with a custom Rick King scoop too!!
Boat ran 90 plus no matter what. It was like you were wearing it when it finally would fly and skip around!
I shot this with a video camera in one hand and a cigarette in the other. Shasta Lake.
95 MPh.
It wasn’t as bouncy as it looks. I was steering and shooting and smoking so…

The last 10 seconds is WOT
On a side note, I have the Rick King scoop for sale!

 

[rivrrts429]

She’s good for a buck five or ten. It’s wicked from a roll.

 

[was thatguy]

I love hot Rod boats. Jets, flatties, hydros, all of em.
There is nothing like that explosion of chaos.
When it starts airing out it’s like you are wearing the boat. It’s an extension of your feet and arms and input. Even the jet Miller is just awesome when it’s on the edge. Like running whoops wide open on the pipe on a High strung bike. No room for error. Be on your shit or be off the gas. One flinch and it’s over.
That “edge” is reached in a matter of seconds.
I fucking love it.

I never baby it. That’s not what it’s about.
If it breaks I fix it, stronger and better.

 

[floatn turd]

Man!
There are a ton of cool ass botes in this thread.

I would love to ride in a few of those fast "egg beaters".
Just to see what it's like.

Best pic in the thread. Iconic.

Typical channel jet boat meet.
Mines there somewhere.
(It’s the fast one…lol)

 

[was thatguy]

Shit.
Now I have to buy a flattie…
Last one I never got to finish.

I think this might break out of the 70 mph bracket

Picture is real but unfortunately I did not personally do it. Story I got was that the guy that did all the work to the boat had a crane put it in his pool for his birthday party or something along those lines
