Re: Convincor 253 speeds
I have a 94 253. It goes 59 mph 
No boat, why are you looking for speeds for the 253?
If you do a search you can find a lot of different speeds listed. Before I bought mine, I rode in a few Bajas and Checkmates to compare. I thought both had benefits and ended up with the check.
The 253 hull will go 80mph with the right power combo, and still be driveable.
So i've heard
I think there may be insurance company trolls running thru this site right now, so I don't think many people are posting how fast there boat is unless it's an obvious offshore go-fast.

SO, I will post my question differently.
Does anyone know what kind of power it would take to run a 253 at 80-85? I'm guessing about 650hp?

Re: Convincor 253 speeds
650 hp sounds right. But at those speeds you are pushing that hull beyond it's abilities. @ 78 mph, mine was a handfull!! It would get squirley very quick in sloppy water.
