Fred, the Excalibur I did some work on was a 1987 42 Eagle, did not have a wrap-around windshield. That boat ran 52 mph on the gps and had 370's (with the same cams that Waterfoul runs) and BW TRS. I'll be online next weekwhen I go back to work. Otherwise call me at 616-403-8378.

Fred.....I know this post was a while back, but, wanted to post this update. (just because I was out in my friends yesterday with the GPS in hand)
His is a 40'Hawk (think the Eagle was the 42'). He has crate 502's in it now (no blowers, special heads...etc.....crate motor with cam), trs with 4blade 23".
It was right at 60mph on smooth water, and not much playing with the trim. (he also just changed the rotations to inwards).
So, I would suspect 65+ in a nicer chop with tuning and adjustments)....
.......and this boat, like the others said, is a friggin tank. When its beached, its beached......period, end of story.
