RE: 100 mph
You'd need to build something on the lines of this.[:-] Then you'd need years of experience to know how to set it up using a network of brilliant friends helping you achieve your goal.

If you are interested in running the 50's then that boat you have (with some work) might be capable of it. Beyond that - you will need a different boat and some serious motor work (and a dose of knowledge and experience wont hurt either). You will find that the guys going faster than 60mph are not the guys on forums asking "how can I go faster than 60mph" but rather the ones with the experience to figure out what they need to do

RE: 100 mph
With the knowledgable people actually willing to help with giving setup configurations, and being able to buy the hot ticket props.... 60mph is not really a hard number to get these days, IMO. Sometimes a boat already has the setup and prop to do it...just not the motor. My Cat went from consistently running high 50's to well into the 60's with nothing but a motor swap.

You might need a turbine engine.

How do you get a gas boat to go 100 mph?

I know, a RC gas boat is hard to break that speed, I'm just dreaming, there is no turbine RC boat engine in the market, be more sense, disney should change the topic to 70MPH.
