A note about these types for hulls...The 13 and 14 Checkmates, the family VooDoos, the 14 foot Kennedys etc.
THEY ARE NOT COMPETITIVE WITH THE SAME HORSEPOWER COMPARED TO A CRITCHFIED, ALLISON, COMP VOODOO OR DELTA!
They are better multi-purpose boats! They will run in the 50 to 60 mph range with a 70 hp motor. I have never seen a MX 13 foot Checkmate like this one run with an SST 60 on it. It could? be a very fast T850 boat. I think it has possibilities.
With a stinger on them they would be a good T750 boat for sure.
HAPPY TO REPORT THIS BOAT IS NOW PART OF THE GORDON FLEET ON 6 MILE. PUT THAT 70 LONG ON IT AND COME RACING T750!
