104 MPH on a PWC

[Greg]

Here is a video Joe took a couple weeks ago at the Hydrodrags the video features Julio Rivera on a highly modified Yamaha GPR

I almost bought a stock Yamaha GPR, I did take it for a test ride, wow the stock ski was fast, almost too fast, can't imagine 104mph.

I've done 102 in a combat boat once and that was unreal. Can't imagine it on a ski.

WOW, I would like to see a pic of that boat

This is a prototype. This one is 22 ft.

We had four 300's on a 54 footer when we broke 100.

 

[Coastiejoe]

Here is a 25 footer we tested after the 22 footer.

Still couldn't keep it in the water even with all the guns mounted and the spare smmo on board.

But the vid didn't look like he was running that fast.

those GP hulls do run fast, the midrange is pretty impressive, and from my experience they dig into the water quite nicely even up to the 70's but they need a lil' help to get out of the hole, slower ski's can holeshot me pretty easily. We have a few gpsho's and gprxp's in my area, they're pretty sweet, and surprisingly affordable.

104 ? I have absolutely no desire to go that fast. I'd rather keep all my body parts thank you.

I agree with spim. I love going fast, but 104 is just crazy fast. Would like to see this in person though
