I heard Jim/ Playcraft is building a twin pontoon with twin 700HP Merc I/O's, cant confirm it, but I would have to think, that would be around 90MPH. I would like to see that. JT

Have you seen this over on boatfreaks.org? It's only a single Mercury Racing 700, but I bet it will fly.

If it only goes 90mph, then why do it? It would be pretty much all show and no go.

I would like to know where Jim tests these at LOTO. It would be fun to watch.

What happens at the lake stays at the lake. Unless I have my camera handy.
