I'm having a 292 with 454 mags surveyed next week; supposed to be pristine.

That's not my boat and you forgot to tell me is it Chuck? It's coming to the shop next week for a set of Stainless Marine manifolds and risers and a few other maintenence issues. I can't wait to see what those manifolds and risers do for the performance!

When I swapped out to the EMI Thunder aluminum manifolds and risers, dropped the silent thunder box, and installed new Stainless Marine tips with the "Superflappers", with everything I gained about 4 mph.

I'm in the 73/74 mph range now.

The boat I'm looking at now is in Georgia. Survey next week and perhaps a road trip to go see it. Wife likes the color scheme on this one.

Let us know how new manifolds/risers work out in terms of performance. Should be an improvement over stock.

I have exactly what you need. Enclosed head, strong engines, gil exhaust, merlin intakes, full hydraulic steering, swim platform, 2003 Quickload aluminum trailer, new gaffrig controls, onboard charger, new sundeck and rear seat. It has been gps'd at 78.6. You don't have to worry about someone pulling up next to you with one just like it. Oh yeah, bullet proof Kaama Drives, no Bravo Blues here. Full cover, and cockpit cover. Right in your price range.

Nice looking boat but realistically I seriously doubt if that boat will run anywhere near 70. Especially with those props.

65/66 is probaly the best you're going to see out of her.

Looks good though...

Also double check the motors, 7.4 always referered to the lower HP engines, 330 max. some 310. The 365 motors were always referred as "454 magnums". It just may be a mistake in the description though. If it does turn out to be the lower HP motors, figure top speeds around 61/62.

If you get this boat, swap out to Hydromotive Quad IV props asap.

stock speedo prob says 70,I doubt it has a gps speedo,my friends 311 runs 75 on gps with hp500 502's, It takes alot to see 70+ in a 292 or 311 very similar boats.
311 still for sale!! look in classifieds,taking offers,you can have a very nice 311 for almost the same price as a stock 292!!
