There is some debate about his speed. It was never on gps from what I understand. I would guess 750 would get you there. I was all set to get it to 80 but like I said I got little ones and a wife that gives me the look at about 65. Once this engine goes lame I'll throw some more power at it but for now I'm not going to throw more money at it.
Ohhh the look! I get the same look after 55 lol. I don't think his speed was to far off IMO... have you tried a four blade instead of the 5?

My best speed was with a 24bravo one. I have a 25 revolution but have yet to try it. The bravo didn't pull out of the hole or pull a tube near as well as the 5 blade. The cruising speed is a little better on 5 blade but I lost on the top. For me I can still run high 60's and not blow out on the bottom so I keep the 5 on it. One day I'll do a poker run or a boys trip and loose all the crap in the boat and prop it accordingly. For now I'm content. I keep 2 tubes,4 skis,wakeboard,2 anchors,rope,4 chairs,toolbox,spare prop,crap ton of life jackets, 2 coolers and a kneeboard on the boat. It is loaded to the gills. [emoji15]

Finally after almost a year and a half i bought this hull and the guy i bought i from was going to rig it after he screwed me for almost 9 months i turned it over to Bob at Shockwave and WOW DID HE DO A FIRST CLASS JOB. If anyone gets to the yahoos that fired up Carrera again in Hemet run for the hills these guys haven't a clue about rigging boats.

I just got this Formula 353 Fastech with twin Mercruiser 600 SCi's.
Waiting for the rain to stop so I can use it. Only had it out twice so far.


And my Hallett 270T with twin Scorpion 377 small blocks.


I really like that 270!
