Supposed to be the same hull as the 272 just new top deck.

you should be low 60's with a 375 HP.

By the time you throw
all of your bumpers, anchor,
cooler, and the rest of you junk,
add gas, and people,
with the 375, I doubt it would
break 60.

The 275 rides great for it's size. You will not be dissapointed. I would say that the boat would be capable of 60 easily, maybe 62-63 lightly loaded. For comparison, a 25 Outlaw with the 496(375HP) will run about 63 and it is heavier.

Low 60's...

272 454Mag 385hp... I can run over 60 easily with 3 people, full tank of gas, and a small cooler.
The big difference between the 272 and the 275 is the swim platform.

Mine is for sale in the classified section.

I looked one over at the Syracuse boat show last weekend... actually the whole sunpad/hatch and swim platform area are very different. The 272 has a vent and fiberglass section of the top deck between the platform and the sunpad. What they did on the 275 is move the vents out to the sides, kind of like the outlaws, and now the pad extends all the way to the platform. The pad looks quite a bit bigger than a 272, but it has some funkey angles to it. Swim platform looks about like same size and shape as a 272 (correct my previous post: should have said swim platform area is alot different on the 275) but uses a different non-skid material and a flush mounted swim ladder.
Take a look at the pictures on the Baja Marine website, there are some nice pictures of the 275.
Also they changed the glove box, and the deck hatches are HUGE compared to the 272.
The one at the show had a 425 horse motor with a trailer for $59,995.
They also had a 25 outlaw there with the same motor, $64,995.
Hope this helps, good luck!
