Mine ran 78.7 with the DPX's when it was brand new in 2000, before we moved all our crap into it. It will still run 70+ now, though I rarely thrash it any more. I would expect that Bravos would be good for another 1-2 mph, especially on boxes.

I went with the DPX's for cruise efficiency and reliability, and they have not disappointed me in the least. They are awesome around the docks as well.
