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!

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.

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

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
