VX 20 speeds

[Siuebass0]

Wondering what speeds people are seeing with the VX 20's. Im debating between the pro xs and the suzuki ss. Anybody know what Brandon Card's boat will run with the Zuke?

Well, I don't know about the S motor. In this weather in the Mid-South, lots of humidity, I can get 71 with Mercury. But....and it is a big but....top end speed is ONLY good when there is no wind or traffic. The Vexus excels when the water is a bit rough via traffic or wind. I would go Pro XS every day, all day, and never look back.

So we hear about the rough water ride, not sure what you had before your VX, how’s it run when the lake isn’t smooth? Is the cruising/comfort better on the “normal” water days? Hope I don’t step on the OP, just curious how the normal day runs are...

I had a Ranger 520C. There is NO comparison to cruising comfort. The Vexus is incredibly forgiving and easy to drive...especially during "normal" or rough water days. I've also had other brands and none come close.
