Alright Guys I am trying to what Hull style is most preferred and some true world hard numbers.

I want to know the Fastest 25' boats around. I need some basic info please Horse Power, hull design make and model and if the hull was an old race boat reconfigured. Lastly the most inportant piece is MPH!!! This is an informative thread so please no hypothetical speeds but real world numbers. I am most interested in older 1990's hulls but its always nice to hear about newer hulls.

Thanks Guys! I look forward to hearing some awesome numbers!

You may want to define cat or V. Otherwise the cats own the the top speed, unless of course you drive a Fountain, they are cat killers, LMAO.


In all seriousness if you are looking for a fast V in the 25' range look at the 27 fountain...not meant to be a joke or a slam.

1998 velocity
509ci vortech 8lbs of boost pump gas 800hp
bravo 1 drive, stock bravo 1 30 pitch prop 5400 rpm
full cabin pleasure boat 96mph on gps.

1986 Stoker 26 Super Sport Tunnel with twin 1996 Mercury Hi-Performance 2.5 EFI offshores.Haven't had the chance to run it yet cuz I'm waiting on steering, but Alan Stoker tells me to expect 100 mph.

1999 25' SXT Warlock Cat
HP500 carbed version - 470hp @ prop
GPS speedo - 83mph
Blown 509ci in the works !

1989 25' Talon with twin 225 promaxes. Ran a best of 96.7 mph on GPS. Shooting for 100 mph in cooler temps.

So a bravo 1 will survive mild power in front of a small boat? Interesting.
