My old 1998 Convincor 253 w/502/415 ran 70 mph with a lab finished Mirage 25 under perfect conditions.

1995 283 Convincor with a full "weekender cabin" 525sc spinning a stock 26P Bravo 1, 70.5, Best run was 71.5 with a labbed 26P B1. I tested with 65-75 gallons of fuel and 2 people onboard.

2000 259 Convincor 72mph GPS with low fuel and 1 person on boat (454MAG 461HP 26 Bblades labbed prop). I am looking forward to seeing what this boat will run w/ 600HP. Hopefully we will find out in 2009!

I have a '99 259 with a 700+ hp 540. I can run 85 with the right conditions. Running a -2 Imco, spinning a 25" P5-X.

waaaayyy slower then most
1988 checkmate enforcer 24 , mild 454 , lil over 400hp , running 67.1 with a 23 mirage plus @ 4900 rpm , and 63.8 with the current 25 mirage plus @ 4200 rpm
i prefer the 25 pitch cause i cruise alot and love 3k rpm and 41-2 miles an hour , the fuel gauge never moves
