It handled great we have built a 253 that was a 1994 and at 85 you were all over the place and with the 1995 and nocthed transon it handled great i was very inpressed with it. It did not chine walk or anything. I had my 15 year old son running it all weekend and he was keeping up with a 42 fountain with triple 600's that he was able to run next to in 2-4's i thought that was inpressing for a 25 foot boat but he had to really push it to stay with the 42.
