My estimate is 88.3 MPH on the GPS. Good luck on the Bravos. The weight of the hull, torque of the engines, combined with a conventional V-hull will put the upgraded Bravos to a test. Conventional V-Hulls on boats over 8000 pounds running over 700 HP are murder on Bravos. Good luck on the project.

Weather not looking too good in Charlotte today so we are water testing in Charlotte tomorrow. Let you all know more when we know more.
