I just purchased a 2003 skeeter zx200 w/ 200 hpdi vmax. I took it out yesterday and I only had it showing 53 mph on my gps. This was with a 1/2 tank of gas, empty boat, and 2 small adults (260lbs total). It did not matter how I trimmed the boat. I could trim it all the way up and it will throw a huge rooster tail, suck it back down a little and no change in the speed. I do not believe my rpm gauge was working so I could not tell you the rpm's. Also the hole shot seemed like I had to give it full throttle to get it out of the hole. It has a 3 blade M25 prop and a 12 inch slidemaster jackplate with 16mm rise between the two pieces of the jackplate slide. Am I missing something here??????? I figured this boat would run in the mid 60's easily.
