Just wondering what you are getting for top speeds? I have the 5.0 GXI and am topping out around 58-59 MPH.

Do you get it on with your speedmeter or on GPS?

Hey guys. I can reliably show 63-64 on the speedo, but the fastest I've ever been on GPS is 57.9. It's a shame how off the speedos are in boats.

Well my 58-59 was with almost an empty tank of gas and only me and wife in the boat.

Put a gps in it and I bet you'll be around 52. The speedos are way high.

I think there is a less Speedo error with Merc over VP. on our boat for some reason. This might not be a case for H200SS but I happened to meet a guy with a 07 Horizon 260 with 6.2 Merc and his speedo was very closed to GPS speed… As you can see mine (with VP) is way off….
I wish I am doing 60….. but GPS says 53.9…….

Holy crap, Sushi! I think 53.9 in a 26' boat is pretty good.

Funny how kids like to sit in the front like hood ornaments. :lol:

My son sits in the same spot and is always telling me to go faster.
