    112.6 MPH Swede

    Hello Donzi friends. Summer is over. The boat in the garage. Won the shootout for boats up to 24 feet. Improved my topspeed and the 22 Classic record to 112.6 MPH.

    Congratulations!

    That is a remarkable jump in top speed in one season. How were you able to achieve another 10 mph?

    Impressive! Greg has you down as using a 29" prop in another thread. Is that true? What rpm do you hit and what's the drive ratio that gets you 112+ out of a 29?
    Why is faster never fast enough.

    I'm really surprised you can do that w/the windshield and the open cockpit.

    He may have changed props. I listed the 29 that he had used prior but fysis will give us the latest and greatest

    Thank´s everybody for the congratulations very encouraging.we had a lousy summer here in Sweden. I only did 6 highspeed runs in total. My son filmed the last one which was the 112.6 Still enjoying taking the Donzi out for a spinn on a clear summer morning after doing some modifications or testing a new theory just to se if the needle moves a little further then the last time.
