Boss is looking at a ZXR 21 with a 250 SHO. What top end are you guys getting?

Asked this very question at the dealer yesterday and was told 74ish will be realistic.
Thanks. Hearing the same
That's pretty good if you have a tournament load. I guess I'm getting old, once I hit 70 that's plenty fast enough for me.
With 2 man tournament load, I’m getting high 60’s in normal chop. No jack plate.
It seems from what I am hearing the r hulls are a touch on slow side but, phenomenal in rough water and really smooth. 69 or 70 on 2 fx 20s from good sources. That is gactory set up so to speak.
ZXR20 is a 75+ mph boat
ZXR21 is a 70+ mph boat
You have to drive these boats some on the top end, but from what I have been told that was Skeeter's plan.
An FX is a different hull than an FXR. Same with ZX and ZXR.Originally Posted by btown
There is not gonna be 5 mph difference between the 2 models.
Boss had me do the break in. Idled for an hour which was brutal. I did try to troll a crankbait with no takers. Then another hour just barely on plane. 22-24mph. After that I got to take to speed for a few minutes at a time. I didnt push it all the way and saw 70mph with a 3/4 tank and 2 guys. I put 360 Mega on it also and decided to test it on a cool stump row I knew about. Had that rod with a crankbait laying there so I tossed it around those stumps. 3rd cast=4 pounder! He has a nice boat fast boat and lucky boat!
2 power poles? Just curious
No poles. He had them taken off
73.1mph @ 6100rpms Bravo 1 LT 25P
73.7mph @ 6000rpms RX4 24P
Vent Plugs plugged off on boat 1 person medium tournament load Jack-Plate 12-15 on gauge for both was where I found it to be best. No porpising what so ever. I did another full post on this in the props thread.
I have a zxr 21
t2 worked prop. Tourney load,3/4 gas and boater 250lbs. 71 add non boater boat does 68 all day. Most I’ve seen is 69.5 with co angler.
My ZXR 20 has a hydraulic plate and two 8' raptors.
By myself (180 pounds) 1/2 tank gas, empty livewells, slight chop, I've seen 74 mph
Tournament load with partner, 3/4 tank gas, livewells full, I've seen 71-72 mph.
I'm running the stock T2, but looking for real world numbers on a 26 Tempest and would like to run one.
2022 Skeeter ZXR20
Yamaha 250 SHO
same results here... although, I've only seen 72 with myself.
