I would think low mid 80's would be very attainable, see ya out there.

Where are you in NJ? My summer home is in Brick.

Just south of Manahawkin, I usually use the Surf City ramp on LBI.

Well made it back from KY without any issues (12 hr drive). Boat runs strong and is very clean for a 99. After putting some hours over the weekend my best speed was 85mph GPS, 3 adults, 3/4 tank. drives 4.5 and tabs 2 in salt water with 75deg temps. My mechanic has a 1996 32 with 700's and he relocated his batteries to under the v birth which picked up a couple mph. The 32's needs the nose to come down making them run more level. Gonna give it a try....

Congrats on your new toy. 85 is a nice number.

Sorry guys, no clue how to post pics here. I know 85GPS is very healthy but we are trying to figure out if the ECU's have been reprogrammed. My wheels are 27 Hydromotives and I'm turning 5500 which leads me to believe the computers may have been altered.

I think the stock rpm limit is 5250. So either both tachs are off or the computers were reflashed . Congrats on the new boat. I boat out of Toms River so maybe I will see you out there some time.

You can do better with Bravo Ones than Hydromotive. I went through this with my 32 Fever with 500's. It had 28 hydro's on it and while it ran flat in rough it felt stuck to the water and more stern lifted than bow lift with lower rpm's. Talking to BBlades and others they all said that Bravo ones would pick up the boat. I got a set of 26 bravos and just got 28 bravos, Haven't had a chance to run it yet as last fall when I got the 26's I blew a seawater pump before I could try them and just winterized it. Hopefully within the next month I can test out what they told me. You may want to talk to BBlades or other reputable prop people as well.

Very helpful info on propr selection...thanks! My mechanic said his 32 with 700's responded better to the bravo ones vs the hydros. I'm running 27 hydros. Whats the comparable bravo one....28?
