Default 28 race speed

I saw in the classifieds a couple retired 28 ft skater canopy race boats. one was a 96 and the other a 94. how fast would these boats go? the 96 has twin 2.5s efi w/ 15in mids. the 94 has twin 96 2.5s w/ brucato boxes and intakes i believe. thanks

I would say they ruu nabout 110mph and weigh about 2,700 with fuel. Remember these boats are not set up for top end they are set up to make a turn and accelerate hard out of it.

Sorry I forgot to include the engines. I would say another 800pds for the engines so a total of 3,500pds.
