Ok I have been looking around and tossing up maybe a cafe racer or the mistress.. What years did they start making the mistress with no window, Is 70-80mph top speeds? Anyone have a pdf from factory on the boats ?

Gonna need some big power to do 80 in a cafe or older mistress

Mine will run 80\81 with 650 a side

My Cafe' will run right at 70 with 500's.




And, it's for sale......

No doubt the Mistresses are old school cool, but the Cafe's are a MUCH "newer" feeling boat than the Mistresses, especially the newer cabin style that came in ~ 1990.

I have the Owner's Manual PDF for a cafe if you want it shoot me an email eric.ancarrow( at )ferguson.com

The Cafe's must be faster bottoms than the bullets. I only see 73-74 with 550 a side.
Sea-Dated, can't believe your boat hasn't sold.

Have Brett lab some props for you. You should see 3-4 mph increase. My buddy had a 92 Bullet with 575hp per side the boat hit a high of 82 but ran all the time 79-80. The speed is there you just need to finesse it out. Sea Dated I tell everyone I know to buy your boat. My vote is for the Cafe hands down over the Mistress, here is why newer time less style and better resale. Not to mention I just love the deck lines of the Cafe it is still my favorite looking Cig and the ride in rough water is unbelievable and not to far off from my Tiger .

Mike,

Couple of quick questions.

Is this Bravo outdrive boat?
What RMP are you turning?
What size props?
What kind of exhaust?


Thanks!
Bob

See if that helps you out any
