What kind of speeds? I was looking at them and 28 Sunsations.

I like the 26 Sonic lake cumberland has listed

26 Sonic
 
Had a 2000 with a new 496 HO and Bravo 1 with 24 pitch bravo 1 prop. Best we saw in salt water with a little chop was 62.

There were 2 of those locally. 1 with a 500EFI that would do around 75 and 1 with 496 that was around 67-68....

Jim, Im glad to see a 31 in paducah. That is a great boat.

My 1999 26' with a 500EFI would only turn 72mph with a labbed 24" B1 prop. It would not spin up a 26".
