I have a Bravo 1XS, now this on a completely different hull so this is apples to oranges but it runs 14% slip on my boat. Now I do have another prop that runs 7% slip but it aint cheap.
The guys posting may be fudging some on their numbers. BUT You should do this just to see..... because I bet their numbers are with 1 battery, no trolling motor, 5 gallons of gas, on a 40 degree morning. (important)
Go do this and see what it does..... Then let us know.

I went out one morning while it was 36 degrees when we had all that cold, nasty weather. Water temp was 49 degrees. Very light chop on the lake. 63.8 mph that day and I had 1/2 tank of mostly premium fuel, 4 batteries, trolling motor, fishing gear, and just me (190 lbs). I'm thinking with 1 battery and no trolling motor (which is useless on a fishing boat...I'll never leave the dock like that) that 65 mph may be achievable, but definitely not the 68 these guys are claiming.

Sniper, which hull and which motor are you running that Bravo 1 XS on?
