I would like to know how fast it goes. Looks like a shorty drive. JT

I love the look of the boat, it's really different with the red tubes. But, those rear loungers look just plain stupid on there! A basic sun pad would be a lot better fit.

The only thing I like about it is the horsepower. It is not in any way appealing to me beyond that.

I had a former neighbor who would have bought that in a minute. He had the one with the 396 HO and didn't think it went fast enough.
I wonder if they just upped the ante for the Shootout at LOTO in August? Maybe they're tired of seeing that South Bay going 112 mph and want to grab some glory.

I dont think a 700 boat will have anything for that Southbay. Im guessing 85 MPH. JT

Id buy it if I could afford it . Its actually one of the only Playcraft colors I like. Not a fan of the orange and purples on a toon.Got too much of that in my mid 90s arctic cat days. The black and red looks good though.

As far as the spped, I would love it. Speed of an offshore , but room of a party toon. Best of both worlds.
