A 29 Outlaw running only 73 on GPS - Ouch!!

OSO member ADVANTAGE is selling his 29 Outlaw. His runs 77+ on GPS. Sounds like 77mph would have lead the pack in this run.

the 29 I was talking about had the 375 hp engines, his boat was new, and only had about 18 hours on it, I think after he gets the engines broke in and gets a feel for the trim and drives he will pick up his speed, and all boats were loaded with full tanks of fuel and each boat had several people in them, with luggage because we were spending the night, so we were loaded out pretty good, I bet those speeds would pick up with one or two people and 1/4 tank of gas, but hey we had fun anyway! O do you really think that Advantage's boat will run 77 on Gps with 4 adults full tank of gas and gear,if it will I might think more about buying that boat!

Mark, you better buy my boat, ha!

There was a Poker Run in my local area that I participated in this past summer. They sure get the adrenaline pumping! Speaking of which, I ran a new 2002 33' Outlaw with 496 HO's. Not sure what sort of baggage he had for fuel, luggage, etc. He had him and his wife in his boat, and I had four total people in mine. It was a race, but I definitely pulled on him!

Hey Darin, if i planned on keeping the boat i would get you to lab the prop for me, in the summer it wont touch the limiter unless 1 person and low on fuel, when I get my next boat I will send you the props!

Derek, that boat of yours sounds like what I am looking for, just need to sell my boat before I can buy another, those 33 outlaws with the 496ho's run good, 75 or so, bet that puts you right at about77 like you said, maybe I can get my boat sold!
