Here's mine............it's a 1978 Omega Fiberglass Lake boat. Running a  (625HP, 580 ft/lbs) BBF 429 (+.030) 11.6:1 compression with SCJ Heads, Holley 850DP, Bassett Headers, American Turbine Jet Drive with hyd diverter. We can hit 84mph on the GPS with full fuel tanks, me the wife and 2 kids !! And it will hit that speed in just over 5 seconds flat ! There are faster boats out there.....but havn't run up against one than can get me from off the start. Oh.......and I named it after the wife !!

I don't know a heck of a lot about boats, but I hope to own a Checkmate someday. They build some pretty sweet boats.
If you want to run with the big dogs you have to be able to pee in the tall grass.
