Well 99 and half of the 2000 boats don't have steps. I have seen a 99 with 500's run close to 80, and some others barely break 70.
Late 2000, 01, and 02 boats will be stepped. 500's will get you 80-82. 525's will run 84-86. I have NEVER seen any of these 525 boats get to 90 or even close like some have suggested. (besides the F-2 layups).

You'll have to buy a 2002 or newer to get the ITS option (extension box). They weigh 9300 lbs.

Alright then speed experts. What do you think my non stepped 2000 Tiger will run with a pair of 750's . It has an extended cover girl cabin and ran 70 with 540's
