ok gary should be around saturday sunday i have a police benifit

If you have a motor then Garys boat is the way to go. The race layup boats are built stronger and liter. The bottoms are blueprinted, Faster boat !! When you go to sell it in 5 years from now people will ask just like you did, is it a standard layup or race. Thats worth some money. Then you have all the extras that add up crazy fast . Garys boat was built and rigged with top of the line everything. Dont spend you summer building and changing . It gets old fast .Spend it boating !!

Well said Mike, my Y2k is a steal at 30k, I may put
used 500 efi in her and have 2 boats !!!

How fast do you think this will go with a 496?

Low to mid 70's with the 496 HO.

Thanks Ted!

Have seen that you have a 500efi for sale, how fast do you think it will go with such an engine?

Mine is running a true 75 with a five blade Maximus with the twin of that HP500. It has another couple of mph if I use a Bravo prop but the midrange cruise is not as good. Fastedy was getting 81 from his race boat with a 500 hp, but he has an odd notch in his that likely helped his top speed slightly. (And my boat always has a full cooler)

and that was with 200lbs under the motor
