The 33 Daytona was a 1999 or 2000 if I remember correctly
80-82mph Gps back around 2000/2001 I ran one in the chesapeake bay (salt water) With the Rep from Donzi & yes it had a pair of Merc 500hp efi's.. Light chop about 75* temp, 3 persons & under 1/2 tank of fuel for a load/conditions..

I believe the Daytonas also have a stand off box. Great boats, i did not know the layup had kevlar in it. Learn somthin new every day :cool:

One of the reasons you see the ITS set ups on some is that was/is an option with the blue motors that you would run in the Daytona.. ;) J

I have the hp 500s and I see 77 78 all the time and even hit 82 once last year but every thing was just right there was a bout a 2 to 3 ft chop with caps and the boat loved it.
