Default optimistic?

Would stock 502's push this boat to 80MPH? I thought it seemed kinda fast, but, thought I would ask here

I thought so too Phil, but, didn't know for sure since I dont have one, and didn't want to "step on toes" if seller was a member of OSO. Seemed a little TOO fast for stock power though

It will run 70-72 with 502's if they are all stock.

I'd guess mid 70s. I run an honest 70 with 502s. 342 shares a bottom with the 33 and I'm heavier with genset, windshield, galley, etc.

500 EFI stock will get that boat to 80 you dont need blowers. It says it has extension boxes but no photos of them. Low to mid 70's IMO
