'05 SX190
VMax 150
6" JP
Predator Eagle 26p
Best ever speed just me in the boat semi light load and 29* air temp and low humidity 65.3mph GPS
Will consistently run in the 64mph area with cool winter temps.
Summer time with heat and humidity its around 63

I'm usually alone too with a light load, 6-7 rods and some tackle.

'07 SL210 Fish & Ski, 200 VMax HPDI, stock from factory (SS prop), 67mph on the speedo, 65.2 on the GPS @ 5800 RPM (WOT), still in the 10 hr. breakin. This is pretty much dead on with the Performance Bulletin that Yamaha puts out for the boat/motor combo.

Thank you everyone some impressive speeds.

[K.D.]

What is most impressive is that they all seem very accurate. Usually someone chimes in with a 202 with a 200 Yammie running 78 with 2 guys and 1/2 tank of gas.

I've got a ZX 250 with 250HPDI. 27T-1 and it's ran 74.3 GPS with me and a full tank. I've got dual consoles and 4 batterys on board also.

my light load anymore isnt soo light, I have so much tackle crammed into my boxes that I could probably run 2mph faster if I would empty them out The day that I ran my fastest speed I think I had taken out my 2 butt seats and pedestals but the rest of my normal gear was in the boat, but I'm pretty sure I remember that I was under 1/4 tank of gas.


Also I got to thinking and I think I posted the wrong speed earlier, it was actually 65.4 that I ran that day @ 5900RPM's I knew I had it listed on the Skeeter Owners Forum/Gallery on the main page and had to go back and look it up to remember It was about this time last year that I ran that speed, so far this year I havent had time to get out much since the weather has been cold and the few times I have been out I had my TXP on the boat.

[GM482V]

06 ZX225,, Still playing with setup. Last trip with 3 1/4" split in jackplate, 75 mph 5850 rpm 20+ lbs W.P. With a 25 T1. Still had more trim. I may be wrong, but I'm thinkin there's a couple more mph to be had.
