Let's go for a ride and hit 78 MPH with 2x496 let me know when and the 85-90MPH blow hards also wanna see it not on the back of a trailer GPS
are you referring to the boat test video of the 2012 353 w 525s? Where he says with 3/4 fuel and 3 people it hit 80.5? Just based on that 85 is possible with labbed wheels and boxes. That capt clearly isn't very familiar with the boat either as he states there's no access to the bow from the cockpit. Guess he figured the top of the glove box is ribbed for her pleasure.

WTF are you mumbling about now? why are you talking about 90 mph in a 525 353? No one else is. You just keep throwing junk against the wall and think it will stick.

353 Fastech 500 EFI's 30p bravo 1 props stock. No Boxes. Lake Wylie SC. No current. Clearly GPS, not radar not speedo. There is no way to "fake" GPS unless you play current games on a river.

does 'no way' include just holding it in your car? Cuz we usually cruise at 80-85 mph around baltimore ... on land.
Got my SEA-DOO GPS to log like 74 one time that way lol. left the key on.

NOT getting in this fight, could NOT care less how fast anyone says a boat is or isn't. Just pointing out the obvious :-p

If someone wants to cheat its easy driving around. On the water you can't unless you are running with the current on a river. Pick a good river and you can gain a bunch. If I wanted to cheat it would have been a much higher number. A bit hard to hold a GPS and drive the boat There are way to many people with 353's with blue motors that run the same speeds. OFFSHOREJOJO just doesn't like the real numbers because his boat "only" runs 70+ with 250 less HP.
