Default 37 Outerlimits 525s= 95 Mph ?

I was at the fort lauderdale show looking at a 37 outerlimits. And the sign said it ran 95 mph with 2x 525s at 8500 pounds. Does that sound a little fast . If it does great. But I drove a 99 with 2x 500s and it ran 82-83 mph

Also, it may have been a 37' GTX? Not the Stiletto or whatever they call the regular 37'.

Just a thought.

The new epoxy 37 will probably run close to that. I know a 37 quadstep weighs between 9500-10,000.

Wow that is fast, even if it just tickles 90 with that power.
I know its lightweight and multi stepped but how the hell are all these new boats goin so fast?
Aggressive X dim. and 4-5 blade lab props?
Even a bunch of other new boats show rockin speeds!?
I'm amazed...It might be time to dump the old slug for a lower powered EFI trun key everyday new one.

Velocity Tom, I was not saying you were wrong about the weight. The weight I listed was for a 2002 37 OL. I know they saved alot of weight going to epoxy
