malibu did that a long time ago. Had vette tails and everything. So the idea is nothing new.

That's not the coolest looking boat, but its kind of interesting in a way. Not something I would own though.

Malibu and Master Craft have a history of offering some pretty high horsepower ski boats. The funny thing is that 505hp ski boat would be pretty hard pressed to do more then about 55-60mph simply because the hull isnt designed for speed.

yup our malibu has an LT1 in it. 45 is all it will do, proped and hull design makes it so. But it will do 45 with 1 or 8 ppl in it. We pulled 4 skiiers and it would still do 40 with throdle left.

Yep just for comparison my parents 87 22' Ski Centurion with a Carbed Ford 351 will do 43.

I want my boat to be powered by twin-engined (both turbocharged) Kawasaki 1400cc sport-bike power-plants.
But I'll still give ANY LS7 vehicle props.
