The H2X is good for top speed, if your not concerned about doing anything but straight line smooth water speed

Handles quite well. The chine is the worst if you try to hold 90mph. It just takes time to master.

I have a Bravo 30 I might try out but dont want to blow up the drive. I agree that anything over 80 in a 25'boat is on a ragged edge and can be a handfull!!!

I've done just a tad over 83 gps in my 23 Nova with just shy of 700 hp, and you're right. High 70s to low 80s is in deed a hand full, at least in my Nova. Simple truth is, the hull simply wasn't/isn't designed for that kind of speed.

V.I. Outlaw - I'm running a bone stock Mirage 27P. Not sure of the RPM at 80ish. Too damn busy driving the boat to look at the tach (not kidding LOL) but probably around 5500-5600. I mention this as maybe you'd get more top end with a 3 blade?

Nothing I've seen in an offshore is faster per horsepower than a Velocity. I run 90 with 4 adults and a full tank with shy of 700hp in a 280. Gary Cook from PFE ran 103 with a single NA setup in a 26'. Haven't seen anybody break 100 with a single NA motor in a full size offshore hull.

Breaking 90 in a kryptonite happens pretty easy since mine is loaded for daily cruising with sound system/amps nice cabin etc its not race weight. I'm also running a stock xr drive with a stock lower. I'd probably run faster with an imco lower

You can see how easy it is to drive.. I filmed these while driving. Heres a quick run to 90.. there was some boatwakes getting me from the side even
