my 25 with 425 and a 23 balanced prop has touched 70 in the ocean with the exhaust open and a very light load.
Normally 67 max with 2 people and less than a half tank. My GPS is always 2 mph faster than the speedo.
The outlaw is popular on our lake and the feeling is that the 26 is about 3mph slower. Unless its a fountain and they are about 4mph faster.

not realy looking for info on the 25, its a totaly different boat. interesting to see, but im looking for the 26 info.
my dad has an 05 25 ol in florida with a 496 mag.
that boat runs 60-62 depending on load, fuel etc. with stock 23p
i was thinking the 26 with a HO would have been faster then the 25 with a mag, but so far it is not. im going to try my 24 labbed on that boat, im going to bet it picks up 1-2 mph but we'll see. either way to me it seems a tad slow. tests i have seen claim 64-68 on gps depending what one you look at, and this one isnt close to that

The 26OL is NOT as fast as the 25, Unless its one of the new Fountain Bajas. I would be surprised if the 26 is around much longer. It is slow out of the hole and top end.

the overall boat is great. the new layout is great. the use of space is great, the look is great. over all it is a real good boat. maybe not the fastest, but super nice.

Yea, I like that prop....great overall performance right out of the box. Much better than a stock B1 (or B1 with the Merc racing lab job....have tried both). Have only seen 62-63mph on top with the Rev but that's running in hot weather and only turning 4800rpm. In cooler weather I should see more.
Brett tells me the Rev doesn't respond as well to labbing and for the ultimate "all around" prop he'd lab a B1, for all out speed an M+. If I keep this boat long enough I may do both.

I just bought my 2007 26 OL with the HO new in June from the Baja Dealer in New Mexico (BCS Marine). I am running in San Francisco Bay with the stock 23 Mirage Plus. Right away I realized (and was not all that surprised) that I was hitting the rev limiter at 5100 with a lot of throttle to go and only hitting 55-58 MPH. I just purchased a Mirage Plus 25 P and will putting that on next weekend. I'm sure i'll get to 62 with this set up, I'll let you guys know how it goes.

I put the 25P Mirage Plus on last Friday and we have a brand new boat! We (wife and I) hit 65 with no problem with a 3/4 full fuel tank and lightly loaded (weekend gear) Outlaw here on the SF bay. I'm burning less fuel too at my 53 cruise speed at 4,000 RPM whereas before I was near 4800 RPM with the 23P.
