Max RPM on the SHO is 6000-6100. I'm spinning 6100 at 63 mph. Gear ratio is 1.75-:1. Dry hull weight is 1950 lbs and motor is 505 lbs. My prop seems pretty efficient and I'm just starting to think the people who are claiming to run faster with the same setup are slightly stretching the truth. I talked to Kyle at LAM today and he even talked to Bill Kenner about it. Neither of them have heard of a BJ/250 SHO running over 63, so that may be question answered right there. I'd still be interested in running a bravo 1 XS just to see what it does tho...
