Mine was originally side steer. Weighed 590 with gauges, shifter, steering and tank. The pad is 1 inch wider than an xb2002.

Is that pad the normal width for an XR2002 or build up wider? Super light, wide flat pad = fast... what year is that hull was she all composite?

I looked at this motor briefly yesterday. Its an awesome piece. I talked to Wayne and he estimates the motor to be around 500 lbs. Its a 6150 rpm motor and it was making 380hp at 6000.

Oughta be a torque monster and carry a load like nothin' else though!
Interesting technology.

Ya thats what I thought also very interesting. Its great to see how light they made it. Now if they could get it to spin between 6 and 7000 rpm at least. My guess is lighter more powerful engine options with higher rpm are right around the corner. The technology is there we just need someone to mass produce it. As long as gas keeps getting more expensive it will happen sooner than later.

I like the HP it is making, do you know what kind of torque #s it makes?

I do not know. But I would guess it being a typical Yamaha and have a very flat torque curve after reaching peak. I will call next week and see if I can find out.

Very cool! Very nice fleet of boats. Isn't there an XB 20003/250xs in there somewhere?

On the 132mph/129mph XR of Glen Reynolds the 2.4lt motor was offset to one side to counter the props rotational pull. Thats a neat {trick} also. That hulls been 135 unofficially. Pretty sure for the average of 129 that day for the record, 132 was the fastest pass that day.
So really it wont surprise me much if another XR with a 200XS can get 120+ since a 2.4 Bridgeport did it before.:big grin http://vimeo.com/moogaloop.swf?clip_id=3569752&server=vimeo.com &show_title=1&show_byline=1&show_portr ait=0&color=&fullscreen=1
