Default 2005 342 w496ho's

What kind of top speed? Cruising speed? Any particular issues with this year and model?

Thanks.

Great boat - LOTS of room. I have a 342 with 496 Mag HO's. Prior to some engine mods and extension boxes it was running 71-72MPH-GPS. Cruising speed at 3500 RPM is right at 50MPH give or take a couple of MPH. Good rough water boat, decent speed for its size and handles better than any of my previous boats.

Does it have the U-shaped seat and sink in the cockpit?

Any questions, let me know, I've been there and done that in two years on my 342. Ive had it in lakes and offshore in the Atlantic in 3-5 footers.
