I dont really pay much attention to them, last time I even looked into them was when this big Red one was hanging on the side of us for a little bit, and it seemed to be the fastest I had seen, this was about 2 years ago. How fast are they making them now?
My guess, 65-70...
mbrown2 had a pretty good guess.
65-67 is a little more accurate. There is as much as 2 mph difference in the same models anymore due to slight motor, hull, and tunning variances from the factory.
I still get cracked up at the people that say they've had their's up to 75 mph. A full blown SuperStock is not running much faster than that and it's a 35k+ boat.

buck,
My guess was just that a dumb guess...I use to have a 110 HP XP, and now I see these 150 - 165 HP machines....What is the quickest out there, and how quick are those new Honda Turbo's?
Just a thought but "who cares?" Not trying to be rude so don't get offended.
Frickin' double post

Apparently the Yamaha GP1300R is one of, if not the fastest PWC available. I've read that it'll do 66MPH out-of-the-box and when you add a new impeller, rideplate, pump (and seal the pump), all for under $500, you're looking at 70-71MPH.
I sold my PWC last year - it was a SeaDoo XP Limited with a Coffman pipe and it did about 62MPH. That's why I want my boat to do 70+ - I do not want to get passed by a lake lice.
holy crap that is fast...I need to add more power, or in a few years they will be passing me up.

Magic mtn dan is correct w/the 1300r by yamaha. I had the opportunity to ride R&d's 1200r race boat a couple of years ago a was clocked at 79.9 mph with a stalker radar gun (not to brag!). I still have 2 skiis but just recently bought an Ultra Stealth which I like better mainly because I now have 3 kids and a wife.
