Early Y2K
 
Anyone have any idea how much Hp it would take to move an early build y2k w/#6 drive to 75-80 mph?

I believe the merc 525's get you there easy

A couple of the owners thought about the #6 drive, but to this date none.

Sorry, I stand to be corrected, sure would be nice if your friend chimed in on the Y2K threads. I would like to know how the boat handled with the 6 SM Drive, what power and how fast.:grinser010:

Thanks golfmax, keep us posted, always curious to know whats going on with the Y2K'S !!!!

And the answer is?
 
So now that it's a #5 and Not a # 6 is a 525 still a power requirement to attain 75-80 mph?

Why a 525, the SM 5 is good for 750 plus hp.
