    210 numbers

    Ran into Mark Weiss out on the Lake of the Ozarks Sunday. I had to stop and check that 210 out. He was fishing with 2 other guys ( probably guiding ) but he was very nice. He said that he loves the boat and the Garmin electronics. I asked about the speed and he said that they are still playing with the set-up, but with 3 guys, loaded with tackle, and 2 power poles, he was hitting 69 MPH at about 5500 RPMs on a 250 PRO XS. He sees it as easily being a 75MPH boat with a tourney load. He said the ride is the best part. Water temps were in the low 80's and these were 3 BIG boys!

    That's pretty good. I am guessing they were using a 25 Fury?

    Pretty good numbers with 3 guys... Probably will see something north of 75mph with a normal setup... Dan

    You are correct. But if u read the OP, he is still playing with the set up and the motor is barely broke in.

    A 210 should be 70 to 75ish depending on prop and setup. Some will be slower and some faster depending on lots of factors.

    After driving my BIL friends older 210 on broken bow over the memorial day weekend I realized their speed has a lot to do with how hard you want to drive. Mid 70's are no problem if you want to drive the crap out of it to keep it from chine walking or lower the motor and run mid to upper 60's like it's a Cadillac.
