Their are a handfull of flats/ semi bay boats running in the upper 60's/ low 70's Pathfinder fusion, Shearwater X22, Yellowfin Hybrid, Hews, Stearling 22, Majek 21.5, but few True bay boats are coming close to those speeds with 225's and 250's on them.

Thanks but I'm set for now. If I ever did upgrade it would probably be a 24 YF.

If I go solo with half tank...I can hit 67mph....I don't think that boat can run 72....but I would love to take a pic of him chasing me...once he hit choppy water....I promise he is doing 50 or less.....real chop under 30.....

that boat runs every bit of 72 bud. Those sho's don't play dude. And this isn't a smooth ride debate. It's speed

I'm not saying 67 is not possible in your boat with a deuce and a 1/4, but I sure would like to see it.

What pitch prop are you running also? The only reason I ask is that the Haynie web page says 60mph with a 225, That extra 7mph is gotta be coming frome some where?
