Karen has driven our 600 boat at 90+,but she knows performance boats.Depends on your level of skill,not quite stab and steer,but we both feel comfotable in it,tabs up,drives at about 4 or 5,nice ride.

Got it, thanks for the time. Exactly what I wanted to know....

My 353 is well into the 90's with 500 EFI's. Whipples and Imco extreme sc's. It's a very stable ride at these speeds but I don't get into "big" water here in Arizona. You will not regret buying a Formula.

Re: 353 Performance Question
 
I do have a question to throw out there. I do have a 2004 353 with 525's, and Stelling boxes. I plan to switch to GGB's, to replace the restrictive Corsa's.
I was curios if I can raise the Stellings one hole? The boat was delivered with the Stellings in the middle hole. The benefit would be that the drives would be one inch shallower, and we currently have no issues getting on plane. I was also going to switch the prop rotation to spin inward, but I was looking for opinions. What do you guys think??????
