Really? I never heard a huge number on that boat. How fast did it run?

The other variable is the no frills/liner cabin. They only built two of those (Shogren built the other one, not sure what power it got or where it ended up). So if the boat is indeed faster than a Merc 700 boat was it because of the engines or the lighter hull? We won't know until another PR cabin Merc 700 boat is dialed in/tested.

The 288 had a 625 motor, nothing really to compare that one to except a 525 boat. 100 HP difference would be great in a 28 ft boat but not sure how much faster.

I do not remember the exact number on the Ilmor boat but 106 comes to mind. Maybe Chris from Sunsation will chime in.
