I learned a lot about the boat and its owner by googling "unbridled dover delaware". Owner's name is Todd Campbell.

I'm not sure he will know where the fish are, but when he does he can get there fast!

Spud, with your best estimate, what would a rig like that cost, and what's your best guess of how many MPH that 1600 horses would push that type of vessel?

"Tomlinson didn’t run the boat for top speed but he did take the 21,000-pound boat past 60 mph with plenty of outboard-engine rpm left."
"but he’s equally impressed with the performance of the boat with the 1,600 hp worth of Verado engines as he’s driven the boat up to 67 mph."
I can assure you that 67mph isn't the top speed. It's probably the most "comfortable" uncomfortable speed.

I see a similar 2018 for sale at $1,695,000. Sure a 2023 is $2m. You can actuality put four 600HP mercs at $115k each or 5- 450R mercs on same boat. They have same boat with four Seven Marine 627s outboards that produce 627hp, the boat runs 81mph at 5500rpms but can run them at 6500 rev limiter.
The problem is that for $2m, you dont see a single darned rod holder anywhere. They can kerp their crappy boat!

If wings could be put on that thing I wonder if the only part of the boat in the water would be the outboards?....Heck maybe it would go airborne for a bit lol

There probably isn't that much of the boat in the water with it full throttle without wings!!!

Absolutely but he’s gotta stay out of the throttle or that thing would certainly flip

It's Plain and Simple, If a person has the spare cash to buy those types of toys, they don't have to worry about the price of filling the gas tank to operate it every day of the week if that's how much they want to use it!!!

I had a 21 ft Glastron CC with a 175 Merc that would run 50 mph on fresh water with 2 people and 50 mph in the ocean with 4. I decided you really didn't need to go any faster on water. A friend made the corrolary that anything over 25 mph in boat was a waste because your beer goes flat!

One thing is for certain, if one motor dies then he has three more to get him back to shore. He must have had to call the coast guard before or he’s a “d.”
