My boat holds 55 gallons. They are great, but if you get one, go find one thats about 5 years old that some family never uses anymore.

Here is what I currently have. A 22' open bow Sea Ray, with a 350 Chevy motor.

But I'm saving my pennies for either this houseboat. ( I took these a couple years ago at the Lake Cumberland Poker Run)

Or one of these 3 Outerlimit's. Each one is over $1,000,000

That houseboat wasn't expensive or cool enough with ONE helecopter... so they added 3.... Just wow. Those outer limiters are nuts. If I get a chance next spring I'll get some pics of the ones at the lake.

Nice boat though. :rockwoot: Thats kinda what im looking for. My neighbor has an awesome little boat. I forget what brand.

The owner and friends probably go up and have mock dogfights... or fly around the lake and snipe people with paintball guns. :lol:
What else would you do with three mini-copters like that?

I've gone to the Lake Cumberland Poker Run every year (except this past summer) since 98 so I have quite a few pics of various power boats. I love it, love being around the noise and the speed of those. Fastest I've been on a boat was about 125-130 ish on a 38' Skater Catamaran.

I had slowed to about 5MPH, to yield to a LEO with his lights on, but the dude behind me in a Dodge Ram P/U was chatting to his passenger and didn't see the LEO or me. He hit me doing about 30ish MPH.

And it rides hella better. Me and a buddy drove one of the Wranglers from the guys Florida house back to Ohio. Those things are so flighty on the highway. Is almost scary.
