Well I finally did the deal yesterday. Ive been trying to sell my race car and get into a boat for this summer and finally made it happen.

This 25 was owned by the eliminator factory from 99-05 and was in hot boat 2000 as well as the eliminator factory brochure. It had a #6 drive and 1050 and went 130.7 mph

when they sold it it was replaced by a bravo 1 and 525sc combo. the 525 sc has 20ish hrs on it now since complete refresh. Hone, polish crank, valve job and resurface. Also has a Comp xtreme marine cam, XM284hr-12.

heres whats ive been told about props speed and rpm. Any comments would be great and does anyone know what gear ratio that sounds like it is in the drive?

Just a guess, 1.5 ratio, try the 30, it may be lazy pulling out.

would the boat pickup by starting with a new 30 and having work done if needed. or could I send the 28 in for a little cup or something maybe pick up a little speed and drop rpm

did it come with a prop? if so what is it ? what did they run on it ?

Yeah tim it comes with a labbed 28 bravo that he said he spun to 5500@ about 85mph

or could I go to a 1.3 upper gear ?

it should say what the gear is on the side of the drive., I would try a 30 or 32 bravo1

Don't you lose about 300 RPM per pitch

I'm not sure that's why I don't know if I should go up to a 30 or have a little cup or something added to this one. Something that would pull down the Rpms 300 and hopefully gain a little mph
