Good to know. Shogren said 88-93. I bet it could get a mph or 2 without the generator.

A couple years ago I was looking at a new 2005 with the same equipment as Shogren's 07 -loaded but less the generator. Performance report was 89 mph with standard low water pick-up bravos and 600 SCi's.

42 600 Boat, They're Nice!!!!
 
The generator will not really affect the speed. They are more affected by fuel capacity than gen weight becasue of where weight sits. 86-88 with 4 people and fuel at beginning of poker run, 88-93 with lighter load at end of poker run. It's a nice set up with good mid range acceleration.
