Re: Thinking of a PQ 260SX

I looking at a 260 SLS bowrider with 375hp. I assume from the mentioned figures I should see high 50's to low 60's depending on load?

Any words on that?

Re: Thinking of a PQ 260SX

You are correct. I've seen right at 60-61mph gps on a good day. And a norm of 57-58. I'm not sure if the bowrider is lighter than cuddy?? I've had as many as 11 people in mine and still ran 57 mph.

Re: Thinking of a PQ 260SX

The 34 is a great boat . I had a 1999 with HP 500's. Did upper 70's. Now I have the 38. As you would expect more weight and length give an even better ride and speed in the mid 80's
PQ makes a great boat no mater what the length but if you want to move to the 38 consider mine. The wife wants a 43 Black Thunder.
I guess bigger is better.
