20 ft.....I went to the factory, its for real.  Contact them, they can send you updated information.  I will be buying one as soon as I can.  I work on the road and sold my old boat (champ 202).  I have been putting away some $ and cannot imagine buying a different boat than a Lanier.  The hardware is all top shelf stuff (hinges, locks, etc).  I was very impressed with Mr Lanier.

i  see the  09 listed for sale, i thought  the  09  had  the  lighter  hull,  it  says    75 mph  on  gps thats not  much speed  considering it has  a 300  yamaha  on  it. whats  the  difference  between  this  boat and  the one on  you tube  doing 120. im sure  that  hammer  is  all jacked  up but  45 mph  difference thats   some   serious    mods

Errol Lanier can answer that best.  I did see the 75mph was with two people and a FULL fishing load, that is a huge difference in the affect on performance, too.  Boats can be set up differently as well with weight placement, amoung of gas in tank, weight of cargo and occupants, etc.  I wish I was ready to purchase, because this boat would be hooked up to my rig.  Good luck on your decision, but check with Mr Lanier to find out further information.
