I'm going to take a look at a 28ft. 91 Checkmate Maxxum w/502c.i. 390 h.p.
Bravo 1> Seller tells me there are 50 hrs on the motor. He also says it cruises at 40 and tops out at 60. Comments appreciated with regard to this boat!

Re: How fast do you guys run?
 

That sounds about right. My 28 w/outboards and a total of 520hp tops out at around 80mph.

Re: How fast do you guys run?
 

Thanks for the reply. What do you think of the boat in general?
BTW- I sent you an email asking about the 24 Sunsation Rocket I saw on your web site. I'd much rather do business with someone local to me like yourself.

Re: How fast do you guys run?
 

My 28?

I love it!

It is just the right size if I want to go trailer one day without the family, it is still not a burden to launch off the trailer,get in and go. Anything larger I think becomes more involved.

Mine is an '89 but you would never know it.

It is holding up real well.

P.S.

I forwarded you the information for the owner of the Sunsation.

I have a Checkmate 251 convinvor classic with an Hp500. I run 78mph on the gps. XZ drive with an Imco shorty. 27p bravo 3-blade. I think if the prop was worked it could do an honest 80

Re: How fast do you guys run?
 

lil big boat, thats some good speed, but it dont add up??? how can you be running a 23 pitch at 4700 and get to 73, even with a 1.36 ratio????
maybe your tach is off???
not being sarcastic, just curious :drink:
