Probaly the Eliminator because its the flatest.
Wouldn`t trade my Sunsation for it though.

Probably depend on how rough the water is and the ride you want. Speed is not a constant because the water is always changing.

But that's what make it fun!!!

I would say Eliminator also. A guy at my marina has one with a 502mag and says he has seen 77 on his gps several times.

Don't rule the ctive Thunder out. There current 28' hull with 2/ 377 runs in the mid 80's. I'm sure the 25 with a single Big block would be at least in the high 70's. Look for the new AVH hull in these models soon. This should increase speed and handling.

I don't know anything about the Eliminator but I would think the others in order of speed with equal power would be ....

Sunsation
Pantera
Active
Sonic

I am just talking flat out speed on relatively calm water. Rough water I would list them differently. My 24 Superboat has seen 75.3 GPS with 385 HP. The Sunsation, Pantera, and Superboat are 7' beam boats and have a smaller feel to them than the Active or Sonic.
