25 Labbed Mirage but you have to watch the hole shot. Its not the greatest for hole shot but should get you better top end. Where are you in Chesterfield. I work in T&C.

I tried both Mirage (23" and labbed 23" Accelerator) and Bravos (22",
Labbed 24" and labbed 25") and I liked the labbed 25" (Merc) best of all.
No cavitation, good mid range, 67mph @ 4900 WOT GPS.
I never found a way to make my OL accelerate as fast as my friends 272/496HO does, though. Hole shot is not the 25 OLs strong point. OLs are feel tail heavy but run great in rough water, though.
