Besides a Hydro Viper and the 15' Allison, what other boat would fit in this category? I have a 115 HP Fast Stike that I'm going to put together this winter and need a fast boat for it. |

The older checkmates, Hydrostream Vision, Tuff 16, 16' sidewinder.... There's quite a few options! |

Depends on what speeds you are looking to achieve, my cousins 15 foot check runs 60-65 with a 115 yamaha. High 60's may be attainable with a better prop. Theres always the Hydrostream vandal too but they are rare up here |

You could have bought my 16 Baja. It went 64 with a 115HO and no effort to tune engine height. Of course I've had the kool aid, so a 15 Ally would be my choice to go fast in that size of boat, assuming I could not afford a Tuff 16. |

Shane's son had a 16dl with a 140 on it. It ran pretty flat and wet I thought. Murph thought the hull was in great shape, so i don't think it was waterlogged, maybe just built heavy and needs more power. Tough as nails and a great handling boat though! I have a video of it somewhere...... |

A 16 or 17' JCraft should do an easy 60mph with a 115. Always lots of those for sale. |

Here it is... https://youtu.be/_Hz3cyjmHVY Looks like he could have been running a lot more trim now that I look at it again. The mini Murph would be a great option too!! |

Very difficult to find, but, worth looking for.... 16 foot Laser. I have found 2 good ones in the last 15 years and both have sold in less than 4 hours. |
