outboard vs inboard
looking for a new boat maybe next year spoke to proggresion in
america they reckon there 24 with 365hp inboard top speed 75mph but a 225hp outboard top speed of 72mph can this be right and why if someone could enlighten me
looking for 22-26 with cuddy that will still do 65+ my missus is not to keen on the phantom
there price all in with trailer was $59000 not bad given the present exchange rate

Yep they sure look lovely boats, I like the 21 (along with the superboat 21 n'all)
you could probably have something much cheaper, customerised to year needs/ wants with either in/outboard built in the UK.
I know what i'd do!
oh, i did!

Bert,
I havnt even got the phantom together yet...............and in all honesty completely forgot to reply to your PM!!! scincerest appologies for that!
21P was a guesstimate.
Havin spoken at some length to Nick Barsch (something of a conesseur of Phantoms) he reckons 60MPH +/- 2mph is achieveble with the bog standard 200 that i intend to put on it.

the problem i have is when i bought the boat did not realy know what the engine was bloke told me it was a 2.5l 200 it has a xr2 cowling with a 23"prop doing 68mph but is reving past 6000rpm my rev counter only revs to 6000rpm but is going past that hence blowing 2 pistons
i have been told with 23" should rev about 5500rpm-5800rpm and do around 60mph the bloke who is fixing it says the head is a 1998 xr6 200 having rebore on all 6 with all new pistons and rings so was going to try a 25" if anyone knows about such things would be appreciated or captain how to get in touch with nick
cheers

Nice boats! I think outboards make up for the extra power and torque with weight saving and R's. Outboards rule!! :hot:
Dont know if you've seen this?: (6mb) http://www.screamandfly.com/home/vid...206.6.2003.wmv

could not open your thread but am tending to agree about outboards for power to weight ratio but seem to be very tempremental and this is the second one i have had to have rebuild

Bert, it's a video of some progressions, intimidator and superboat.
Right click and choose 'save target as' but it should just open if you left click it! You will need windows media player. http://www.microsoft.com/windows/win...es/player.aspx
I do agree, outboards can get tempremental but a new one shouldn't if its looked after. And in the event you do have to rebuild it, I know which one I would prefer to pull.
