That's interesting, my 97 322 Perf. Cruises 50 @3500 and will run 72 on a perfect day and typically 68-70 any other time. Here and I thought the outlaws were a faster boat. Same engines and drives as yours.

Humidity and heat really killed mine! During sea trial in Va ran 68(67.6) then next weekend with 1 less person ran 65. Summer hit and she was 62 max with normal load.
Ended up with 4 blade labbed b/c 3 blade 25p ( that gave me 3500 @ 50) would blow out in turns. I get 50 at 3800 now or 52 with some good chop.

Should run right at 70-71mph dialed in wit labbed props.

A 33 Outlaw is 2 feet + longer than a 322 and rough water ride is much better with a 33OL.

I disagree, I didn't think the outlaw ride was any better in rough water.

Is that 72 from a faria speedo ?

a 322 is a 30' boat....a 29 O/L and a 302 w/ 310 hp 454's will run low 60's gps

I am probably going to get them freshened up after this season and send to Cutting Edge. BBlades labbed the first time, but don't want to pay that price again to fix a couple nicks and maybe tweak the lab. I do love the feel of the Lab. You can definitely feel the difference in bite.

May not see too much difference in ride but 322 integrated swim platform. Riding surface is shorter

Livorsi GPS Speedo...

Damn, all along I've been saying I need 10 more feet to get into the boat I really want, now its 12.....

Ran across this thread again.. Figured I would update my speeds..

Running back from Tickfaw 200, S motor lost rpms a couple times. Came off plane, revved it a couple times, and ran good again.. over 100gal fuel and 5 adults and coolers. Was pretty pissed, so at one point, I just pinned the sticks to the wood! She ran over 67! I was like... wth!!

Long story short.. borrowed rinda scanner from fellow baja brotha and ended up having several codes on both moters. Changed TPS on S and MAP and Knock sensor on P and codes did not come back.

Havent had a chance to run by myself and light yet, but loaded (5 adults, 4 kids sitting in cuddy) she is now running 64-65 in summer heat and that wasnt trimmed out bc I didnt stay wot long due to ppl on boat!! Props still have a couple knicks so i will be sending out this winter to relab and fix once I see where my rpms are light and wot.

Just as a reminder.. she used to run 62ish loaded and 65 light in cool weather! Apparently the Knock codes were fixing timing so I wasnt getting any timing advance over 4500... Running great now!
