I had a ’96 Super Pro 200 with a 2000 Merc 225 ProMax, the engine’s heads were shaved 35 cc’s and I added a Hydromotive nose cone with lwp, hydraulic jackplate with 14″ of set back, hot foot and most importantly a lab finished blue printed hydromotive 26 pitch quad 4 O/T prop. This boat FULLY loaded would run in the low 80s. GREAT running hulls if you know how to stay on the pad!
@anelkcityrodder thanks, Yea it does high 70′s all day long (with a tourney load). I got a new 1080p helmet cam this year so I’ll get some better videos.. got our first club tourney in about 3 weeks… will get some video of blast off, and the morning drag race
My buddy has the same boat with a 225 optimax twisting a 25p tempest plus, low seventies no problem, gear, fuel, and livewells full, so this guy has another 25 horse and twisting a 26p…76 is gonna be easy for him
thin hull? my fishing partner and i beat the shit out of the hull in rough water. boat is great for that..but no frickn front deck room in casting area..way to mall for a 20 foot bass boat
thats what I was wondering I live on lake stump, I mean fork and was considering a procraft
Too thin? My hull has held up great… The deck is pretty thin, I mounted a recesed tray for the trolling motor and was pretty suprised on just how thin the deck was. I’ve never had a problem with the deck it’s more a mental thing.
how are the hulls on the procraft boats are they too thin ?
that was 76.
thanks for the comment, Sorry you don’t think it’s 76mph. all I can say is watch the video again and keep your eye on the speedo (the left gauge) it tops out at 80mhp.
I believe that pro xb can make that rig go 76 but that was about 56.
