My 92 Bullet with 550's ran about 78 with regular bravo's. The Bullet is a very heavy boat for her size and has a great rough water ride. Need a bigger truck top pull her!

I'm saying that my 29 O/L w twin 7.4's that would
only really do low 60's would read 72 on the faria speedo.

Even the Gaffrig liquid filled speedo in my other
29 would read about 2mph happy at top end,
compared to actual ( gps)

I'll stay with my first guess...low 70's w/496's

ran my baja hard and beat a few cigs here on the cape back in the 90s and early 2000s, I use to love beating then in the calm bay and they would point to open water I would run just fast enough to stay75ft in front of them. we had a wise guy who was around one summer everyone wanted us to run but never did he would wait for me to leave the harbor it would of been close he had 650hp 38tg non step92, I had 650hp. after 20yrs I have moved up to a saber 28 thats getting big power. I would of loved to try for 110 in my baja this spring but new boat is here. art
