Yeah nice rig, mmm yeah fast.
But my sentiments are on par with track em down, Can't launch in shallow water, forget fishing the shallow flats, or accessing those little hidey hole lagoons that are hidden behind the mangroves. But still a nice rig!!! How do you boys think it would be in regards to noisy hull slap???? |

The Lanier boats float in 9" of water which is 5" less than a 170 Skeeter and is on par with little 4.5m ali boats. They can apparently get onto the plane in 12" because they don't bury their bums like a mono. I don't know of any boats bigger than about 4m that could do that.
Cheers, Dror

Yep ok I probably should have been more specific in my explanation. Yes your Tracker proably does float in shallower water but my point was more that for a 20 foot plus boat that has such high end performance it doesn't suffer the larger draft that a high performance conventional V hull does.
Leelee, there are other faster boats out there like the Strokers and Allisons (come on Mr Welfare I know you want to make a comment). I wasn't claiming that the Lanier was the fastest bass boat.The thing that impresses me about the Lanier is that it has such a great combination of performance, rough water handling, stability and shallow draft and an insane amount of storage under the decks. An Allison XB-2002 still holds the speed record for a Bass boat as far as I know. Cheers, Dror

Yeah customs had a hell of a job tracking that boat as it did drug runs across the English Channel,,nothing could keep up with it,,

Not to sure about the speeds of the strokers now, but last times I checked I was pretty sure Blair had cracked a 118mph+ in full comp trim with the hydro yammy, and these were 300hp modded hydro yammy's not the 350 v8 either. Cheers Lee |

How much to pick one of these up in the USA used?
Very impressive looking boats and 118mph what a blast that would be, I really want one now Mark |

Lee are you saying that someone in Brisbane has a Stroker running 118mph? Those Hydro Yamaha's are pretty insane. I don't think they have set a Lanier up with one yet. All the faster boats have had 300x's fitted to them but with some tweaks from Brucato or Simon Motorsports.
Cheers, Dror

The hydro yammy pushes around 420hp+ from the orignal 300v6, so imagine what they will get from the 350v8 crazy Cheers Lee |

Ah ok. Yeah both the Strokers and the Allisons run mighty impressive numbers with relatively modest horsepower.
Not sure how the weight of the 350 V8 would go on the back of a bass boat but I would love to see someone give it a go. I think you are right, we will eventually see a HP limit here in Australia to keep the speed down to sane levels. Cheers, Dror
