Re: How much power is it going to take?????
I guess its time to let you guys know...... I CAN BUILD MY OWN ENGINE!!! :eek:
Please no more sales! Does everyone agree that 500 hp should get me to 70? |
Re: How much power is it going to take?????
I'm not sure of the year of your boat but it does make a difference. Older ones are heavier and had less control over balance.
Also before you do check the bottom with a level to make sure the hull is straight. My guess is that 500 hp should get you close but every hull is different. Sorry about my earlier post. |
Re: How much power is it going to take?????

on my 98 24 i seen 65 on gps at 4700rpm with a 23 pitch 3 blade mirage and the previous owner of the boat told me it made about 440 to 450hp and said it would do 70 but i have not tried cause i need a prop.
