110mph in a non A/B boat…

I know it’s not a Basscat though I thought it was still impressive and know there’s some other owners like myself who bought a Basscat for the speed. Has anyone ran a supercharged SHO on the back of an Eyra by chance? I believe it’s making similar power as the 450R though much lighter.

Well I guess that I will reply…..I personally think that it is insane to over power any brand hull for several reasons (Bass Cat included).  First and foremost…SAFTEY of anyone stupid enough to ride in it and the driver.  Second is the liability if you get in a accident, because you knowingly over powered a boat.  I don’t think you will be able to purchase a johnboat if this happens and you live.  Also, if you live and kill someone/family how do you live with that?  Take that boat to a tournament and win…..the polygraph will get your butt when they ask if you broke any tournament rules.  Your boat is not legal because motor exceeds the horsepower rating.  If you want to own this boat and run it on a closed area just for boats like this then giddy up and go!!!!  Am I against speed…..hell no….I bought a Eyra with a 300R that is completely legal and not 110 fast but fast.  This is just a few reasons I am against the flashing and the super charged motors running on boats that are not built for the HP.  I could go on but think I have put my opinion on the table which don’t mean crap but it is out there..

Baileys seems to get several speed infused boat owners to let them play with their rigs. We know it’s not Wheelman’s rig and while your spot on, he just posted the video clip. It’s unrealistic to think this is within the realm of very many peoples operational levels. Though it’s obvious that many have chosen to allow him to place their rigs in the “danger zone”.

Elwood as we texted I understand the Coast Guard rating defines what is legal, but in my humble opinion a boat that fits that criteria isn’t magically safe. Here’s a video of a guy in a legal boat not going much faster than yours, do you where a helmet when airing yours out? I’m thankful they haven’t enacted speed limits on all lakes like they have some, below is the setup from the owner for those who are interested…
