Default 357 speed?

What would you guys think I could see with a 86 357 with 800-850hp a side with speedmaster v's. I know the hull is heavy, and has no steps, or notches. But I would like to know what it could be capable of with big power?

If my memory is working right, we saw 71 with 530 horse a side. I always wondered what big power would do in one. Joe from Cleveland was running some big power in one. He would be a good guy to talk to. I think his username is OffshoreRatBoy.

A buddy of mine had the same ship with 700 a side and hit 86 but he had kaamas on it. Nice boat.

I was going to saw go with Arnesons instead and you would probably see a better number. They do perform about 5 mph better with the Kaama's
