I didn't keep it open, as the engine is still young. Game on !.Hole shot and acceleration were excellent, and dead even.up to about 35 MPH.then I slowly pulled ahead up to a top speed of 47 MPH, which was 1 or 2 MPH faster than the Blackfin.
We were in the Housatonic River in CT, with calm water. He smiled, and said."Let's go for it" ! Both boats had 2 people aboard, and bottom paint. He seemed like a sporting kind of guy, so I challenged him to a 'friendly' race.just from a standing start to top speed. We pulled along side each other, chatting and comparing notes, and admiring each other's new rides. The Blackfin is another very good looking boat, and I had checked them out at one of the Winter shows. Right nearby was a guy doing the exact same thing with his brand new Blackfin 212 CC with a 200 Merc Verado. I'd really look for a diesel.I'd just gotten the break-in hours behind me on my new 203FS with 175 Yamaha. No boat is going to be a Honda Hybrid.Also see the owners comments at the If it was kept well - I'd go for it eyes closed.(after having a good survey)Good Luck ++ Just notices that your BF 29 comes with 350 crusader. Most boats have only one layer.Now fuel consumption depends on your engines and what condition they are in. You will also find out that the exhaust piping/risers does have hand laid triple fiberglass laminated insulation on stainless steel that runs really cool. The 29 Combi hatch is fitted with a huge electro-hydraulic pump and cylinder that opens this hatch a good 40" which make it very easy for maintenance. What I really like about it is engine compartment entry, whole cocpit floor opens up like a car hood. With the deep V does have a very dry ride too. Express style open cocpit - huge space for a 29 footer. Deep V hull, not too much cosmetics but very usefull - bullet proof.
They are no - longer in business but you can ask any Blackfin owner and hear only good things about this boat. If you look at the Blackfin 31 - almost identical with Bertrams. for long years and after he opened his own company and manufactored Blackfins. The owner of this company was an executive for the Bertram Corp. Blackfins are probably the best boat on its kind for your dollar.
