SkeeterMark...I would say no. Maybe 72-74 mph would be about the limit under ideal conditions. Now if the boat is being pushed by a big block Yamaha and it had some prop work done, non tourney load, 1/4 tank of gas and a slight ripple on the water during the cooler time of the year it might reach mid 70's but 77MPH is pushing it a little bit IMO. Most of the folks running 201's with 225 HP run anywhere between 68-72.
