I would think you could be running faster than that. I have a 05 29 575 and run 81-82. Running stock XR with 30p Bravo 1... the Maximus 28 on the boat runs about 77-78. I think the 5 blade is better everywhere except top end. So if you want too end- I’d say put a 30-32p Bravo 1 on it.

Be careful getting that one on plane with lots of power. 29 Fountains are pretty tough on drives. Baby it and use lots of tab to get on plane.

See how fast does a single 525 29' Fountain runs if in the 80's copy set up? A Bigger prop with your power that may be the trick for top speed you want ??
