Dave, Boot looks great and good numbers.

For the most part I have given up on looking for any more top end. I consistently turn out 76 and am happy with that.

Come on T, who are you kidding...

I guess it is safe to say that the 1998 and newer 24' Superboat hull is faster than the 1987 to 1997 straight V, at least the I/O version.

My 1997 has the same HP as Dave M's and runs about the same top speed as T-island's.

I believe that we are all running the same 28p B1 prop.

Pat, Not kidding anyone! 1/4 tank of gas, one person (me) 76. My little 496 is able to push that 28b1 right to the rev limiter.

I also have two labbed 28 B1's and one is 2 mpr faster that the other and carries the bow higher?

It is what it is, no BS.....

Hey T,
I was not questioning the speeds your boat runs.
I don't believe that you are done looking for more speed.

I get 75mph with two people and 1/4 tank, labbed 28p B1, 4900rpm.
The best I ever saw was 78, running on fumes, in 45°F temps, no mufflers, and by my self...
