Laveycraft 2750 w/MAG HO; How Fast????

[ACLC]

Can anyone out there that has this setup prove my good friend wrong? He dosn't believe me. I won't say his name because he's a big fan of Eliminator and his name starts with TOM. This is for a couple cases of beer so I need some good input. :argue:

Wild Lavey (Nick), will give ya the scoop.
I've personally been mid-80s with 4 full size adult males in the 2750 Poker Run Edition w/ a 525merc.

Thanks, I got the same set up as that Poker Run 2750 on mine. I could say it will do at least 80 mph. with the 525 EFI. considering it has the openbow. What size prop was the Poker Run spinning?

[Mandelon]

I think Nick runs at 70 with ease. Maybe call Lavey?

Thanks, but I want my friend to see the response from Customers, not hear it from the Manufacturer. You know what I mean? Oh, and by the way his name begins with the letter TOM!

Chris's "Poker Run Edition" I was in is a very light boat with no interior to speak of forward of the cabin door. It's basically the sister boat of the F-11 2750 race boat. I do not know what prop they were spinning. We were on Mead, and I think we were 84-85 with the 4 of us on board. I don't know what our fuel load was, but I think it was closer to full than empty.
With an open-bow, you're probably going to be very close to 80 IMO, with good conditions. 2750 hard-deck seems to be a better running boat than the open-bow, probably mainly because it has better CG. It's such a close call though, that I think it's a good bet. .....and make no mistake, when it's time for me to step up to a longer boat, it'll be the 2750!!!
