If it turns out as sweet as the 34, it will be quite a thing of beauty.

The boat looked great in person. Had a chance to talk with the Saber guys. I think that they are basically the keepers of the flame currently as far as the evolution of the classic deep V wave crusher goes. If I was going to build a new V hull, I'd have expectations that only Saber seems capable of meeting. Nice guys, great product. Old school meets new tech, but no compromises on anvil tough. Yet they are seeing amazing speeds for V hulls.

First time out testing is at 74 MPH, but they have props on order to get the RPM's up into the proper operating range. Still have 1100 RPM to go.

I'll be really surprised if they can hit 80 with 300's.
