how fast does your boat go?

4 - 5 mph ... big pimpin!!!


2008 west marine zodiac 9' raft, 6hp merc 2 stroke motor

might take it out tommorow .... this resturant right next to the river in my town does "taco tuesday" and i always thought it would be funny to roll up in the boat.

 

I have seen a lot worse boat pull up to restraunts on the river by my house before. Yours atleast looks clean and has a decent motor.

 

yea its a bit nicer than the boat i had before which was an '82 12' aluminum .... although i kinda miss that one



that one was slower but the motor was a 5hp evinrude 2 stroke and it was a bigger boat

 

went on a a buddys bass boat and got it up to like 70 sumthin if that counts for anything

 

yea its a blast! my first was a '96 that did 50-55 yrs ago....i cant wait to get my RXP to 78-79 (keeping stock ECU). But im busy juggling tacoma lift/wheel mods with the ol ski. Kinda going in circles researching parts

 

i wish it was my boat...this is my bosses boat

i think its a 1997 allison with a 200 merc pro xs
gps it at 94mph with the both of us, and 96 just by himself

 

24ft Sea-Pro with yamaha 200 0x66 45mph gps speed with 4 clients and full of gear.

 

I have a VIP ski boat with a 90hp Chrysler motor and I had it up to 45 mph, which is fast enough for me since I just use it to go fishing in.

 

just took it out today, put dads 5hp honda on it and it hauls way more ass than with that merc ... does at least 10 i would say! got up on a plane and everything

 

225 Mercury Optimax on a 20' Triton TR200.....71 mph

 

My kayak is the fastest boat in the world... the faster I paddle the faster it goes.

 

I can't afford a boat but my old man bought a 28' Trend command bridge about 6 years ago. Was in pretty rough shape, stringers were rotten so we totally gutted it, put new stringers, new floor, new wiring, all new interior, new paint and fittings, new pretty much everything. Oh yeah, and dumped the lame duck 305 and 350 that was in there for a pair of vortec 350s. The boat looks like this as far as the shape and size but better condition and interior etc are quite different now:



Does about 48mph on the GPS but there's almost 1000rpm left, it's underpropped. It's fun to wakeboard and tube behind, haha.

 

230 hp. can get almost up to 60 on a good day with the hull all cleaned off.

 

Took the girlfriends family jet skis out this weekend, Seadoo GTI 130 SE and GTX, brand new, bone stock with 2 people on each one in some chop, both of them hit 54!

 

Nice boat. What year, model, motor you have? I have a 97 FW 205 Sundowner w/ a 5.7 Volvo Duo Prop.

 

Ice boat, radar clocked 103.4 yes an ice boat will go 4X wind speed. I can tell you it's one scary ride at 100 MPH.

 

While it wasn't GPS confirmed, I got my old '02 SeaDoo GTX RFI up to 60 according to the speedo one time at about 7am when the lake was smooth as glass. I thought I was going to die. That's really fast on the water...especially on a PWC. I was tucked down behind the handlebars.

 

I have gone 68 on my Sea Doo RXP. And thats on the GPS and flat water.

 

I ride the same jet skis as above and have had them at 71 on the gps. Thats scary as chit on the water.
Old boat, 36ft triple 300's, 64 light load.
New boat 23 ft, 5.7 volvo penta dual prop, 53 on the gps with no wakeboards, ice chest etc.
