Top speed for 35 Outlaw with 525's
 

Hi All,

We just picked up a pretty sweet '07 Outlaw 35 that has the 525HP engines. I took it out this past weekend to run her.

I was curious as to what I should be seeing on the top end. On one run we managed to hit 77.7 mph. This seems almost too good to be true. I was figuring mid 70's but I bet on a clam day that I could get close to 80.

Anyways, wanted to make sure that I'm not out of my mind, or my iphone GPS was lying to me.

I'll post a few pics soon. It's kind of dirty and I don't want yall to see her like that. I feel bad for letting her be in my possession for more than a day looking like she does. I do promise to put lots of love and attention into her so that she looks brand new.

That sounds low to me.

It should do 80 easily, and on a "rough" day... do better.

what props do you have on it now,,,what rpm where you running at top speed,,,and what where your drives trimed at,,,

Were did you buy the boat from? Sounds like it might be Redbud35's old boat. If it is not his boat he set his up just like it and it was fast. Send him a PM he will tell you all about how his boat ran.

redbud ran 82g.ps.,,,your doing just fine,,,keep testing,,,with drive trim,,,,6-7 on my drive trim indicator is the sweet spot

Powerboat magazine got the 35 Faja with 525's up to 84 something.

82 was usally it. I did have 83.5 on the recall once. Was a little faster spinning props in. I never toed the drives out with them spinning in though. Mine was an 08. I heard it went to Canada.
Is it Black?

hell my 06' boss 342 with mag ho's went 75.1 with 27 pitch hydro 5 blades on a 70 degree day

Your boat is almost 3' shorter also.
