I dont think your gonna get an answer on that.. everyone has a different perspective on fast so so and slow.. so if someone said 80 is fast someone else would debate it.My question is why waist your money on this kind of propulsion for an everyday cruiser...Unless its a dollar thing and i know hot tub and zellmers boat run but these are drag boats not river boats..
O.B eddie, I like how you can say...

O.B eddie:
why waist your money on this kind of propulsion for an everyday cruiserNo one knows where this guy does his boating, and by the size of the hull, I would assume it would be somewhere not so choppy. His decision to run a jet could vary from being safer with people/children in the water, to shallow water, to hearing the sound of a Big Block run with headers....the list goes on.
So as you posted above, everyone has a different perspective on what fast is. Well, everyone also has a different perspective as to what kind of propulsion to use for an everyday cruiser.

How fast do you go Sleek?
Sure it depends on who you ask and what they got. But just for discussion, a common measure could be what most 18' jets run. Based on that, I say:
Slow: 55 and below
So-so: 55-60
Average: 60-65
Above Average: 65-70
Fast: 70-80
Very Fast: 80-95
Racer: 95+
As far as I know, these are hard fast rules.

I REALLY CANT SAY FOR SURE BUT I WOULD THINK 70 75..JUST BECUASE OF THE SPANKENS IVE GIVEN MOST OF THE GUYS IN MY AREA.
Then in my rarely humble opinion, I'd say, you have one fast jet boat!
