just ahead of rear tire on pic of boat on trailer,
looks the same to me.
just noticed the one in that pic is a 1997 [red and white]
so mine might not be the same,, although same graphics and interior

The big block with duo prop should provide great acceleration and mid-range cruise performance.

thanx for looking and the feedback,
sounds like it's not a fastech and the bravo 3 may be a good drive for the boat.
just talked to the freight dudes, they are picking it up tonight for about a 1000 mile tow,
be here Thursday, hopefully in one piece....

yes your boat is not a fastech, as stated above they came out in 97, I have only gotten 58 outta mine on gps, my prop needs to be cleaned up and it either needs to be cupped out to a plus or I need to get a mirage plus and then see, sounds like from differant people it should be going 61

I used to have a 92' 271 with a 502 ci, 415 hp, a bravo 1 outdrive. gps speed was 61.9, with under a half tank of gas and two people on board in fresh water. It was a great boat! Enjoy the fit and finish of one of the finest production boats manufactured.
