PISCES with its Hamilton jets gets on plane with virtually no bow rise since the jets’ thrust vectors parallel the water’s surface. Her max speed is near 46 knots, turning 3,000 rpm while burning a mere 32 gph***. She cruises efficiently at 35 knots at 2,600 rpm and using only 22.8 gph***. With her 225-gallon tank she yields a cruising range of more than 400 nautical miles – Impressive!
The Strike 35 feels like a very heavy boat, taking head seas smoothly; however, as with most jet drives, she hits her cruising speed in a scant two boat lengths.
Standard equipment includes freshwater and saltwater washdowns, Pisces has a custom helm leaning post with 2 command chairs, coaming pads, three macerated fish boxes and loads more. Construction consists of a solid fiberglass hull to the gunwale and Nida-Core composite-cored hatches and decks.
