I have a 96 32 with the 500hp's. Love the boat it runs solid 84. With bursts of 87 at times. I saw that you are from Malta. Is that the Malta NY. We mostly go to Saratoga lake with ours.

Im from Malta.... its a small country to the south of sicily in europe ...... I am kinda going towards the 502 MPI engines as they might be abit more economical since we use our boats alot here (around 4 months) I think it should be pretty fast with 502 MPI engines (I say in the range of 72-75 mph)
