Hi there!

It seems like a white 24' carrera is heading overseas to sweden any day now...

Just bought a 24' Carrera and I will install a 496HO, what kind of speed would you guys guess I will see?
Also, what prop would be a good first one to try?

Im new to the carrera boats so any input is welcome!

Thanks! /Fredrik, Sweden

I just builit a scorpion same hull, with a high X dimension bravo set up with a 540 750hp boat runs mid 90s..and it rides very stable.

I'm not sure 425hp is enough to break into the 70's, low to mid 60's I would think

(you bought the white one for sale in Miami? )
when new back in the 80s a Carrera 24 with a run of the mill 330/454/TRS would hit low to mid 60s on the radar gun depending on drive height and setup.
Hell there were actually a few cheapo (no cabin/no options) 260/350/Alphas built and they ran darn near 60mph (57-59)..
with 425hp/Bravo I would think it would run low 70s setup correctly
Best rough water 24' hull ever built, congrats!

pm'd you for some pics do you have a mold to build them thanks bruce

Thanks for the numbers! I promise to give you an update once the boat hits the water.

The boat was located in Meritt Island, dont know if thats close to Miami? Its actually in the classifieds.

Sounds like a good start, mid 60s was my first guess.

not the one I was thinking off..
so you bought this one:

looks like a good starting point and the price is definately right!

Hi Freddan, long time..

First I like to say congrats I really like these 24x7 boats.
The hull is pretty much the same as the 24 Pantera hull.
But does it have the padded keel?
If the numbers is MPH one of the 24 Panteras in Sweden
run +66mph on a 400hp 454ci. My prev 24 Pantera -99 with a 454/365hp hit 63mph.

Don't be shy, talk 24x7 on boatsite.se, some of the guys there have some knowledge
