my new used h2x
I am about to buy a used 2002 h2x boss and was curious how pleased will I be with this boat, and what issues might I have. Waiting on weather to break for I can test drive her first though.

Guy actually said he hit right at 70 by himself with half tank of beverage in it. Stock 496 mag with a 23 mirage 3 blade. First time baja owner hope I am satisfied! Garage kept well maintained boat.

It isn't going to run 80 or even 70 with a 496 mag and a 23p prop..... to me it sounds a bit under propped. My Velocity 260 with 496 mag (and a PCM tune) ran best of 74 on an empty tank and a 26p labbed prop.. The Velocity is a much more efficient hull.

[ATTACH=CONFIG]538051[/ATTACH]I had a 1999 H2X with a stock 454 mag mpi, 23p mirage+would give me 68 mph @ 5000 rpm. Loved the boat, shouldn't have sold it.
