I would think twice about those motors. Personally I would look for one with at least 454 Mag motors.

Probably run upper 60's. Find out what props he's turning and the rpm's. Looks like a nice boat. My dad had a '97 with the carb. 7.4's and we loved that boat.

Namwot, my best friend made the mistake of buying a 2000 29 ft outlaw w/310 454's. It is a gorgeous boat,takes the rough stuff good but 4 people/ 3/4 tk gas/600 ft elevation at 75 degrees it runs a best of 60 mph. He has been tryin to sell it for 2 years but the 310's KILL the deal. It has been repropped and the tune checked to achieve a best of 63 mph empty. If you don't care about top speed jump on this deal but if you have speed vision or are considering resale than the 310's aren't a good starting point ,Smitty

I have looked at A LOT of 29 Ols in the past few weeks I would consider buying. Everyone I find that I am interested in has 310 hp 454s. I walk away the second I hear that. The boat needs more motor than that IMO.

I have a 2004 29ol with the 496mags. Best on the Gaffrig speedo was 77mph cool temps, 2 people and 1\4 tank of fuel. Have not put a GPS to it but guessing it is running 72-73mph on GPS . All I can say is I love this boat. With the right power it is great
