'96 272-is swim platform inc. in LOA?

On a '96 272 baja boss is the swim platform included in the loa-effectively making it a 24+' hull?
How do they perform w/ 7.4 mpi-bravo i
did the ever offer a 5.7 l option-if so how did they perform

If you mean the molded fiberglass swim platform, yes, it is included in LOA. It makes it pretty equal to a 25 Outlaw hull. I can't answer the other questions for you, but I would never want a small block in that size of boat. 385hp 454 Mag would be the smallest I'd want. Hopefully others can chime in and give you numbers.

Included in LOA. Runs 60 with a 454 Mag 385hp. Would not want less than that in the boat.

^ Nuts on right there. On a perfect day/load they'll touch 70.

Had a 5.7 in a 23' bow-rider... it was find for that application but would never, ever want one in a 272/275 boat.
