the 36 is an awesome ride even with 525's, there is something to be said for reliability and insurable, 100mph is very fast, depending on where you boat most of the time you can't run any faster due to rough water or too crowded, big power is nice but hardly ever used and very expensive to keep up. You won't find any steals on them. too much demand.

Have you run a 525 3600? How is the acceleration? Do you know what speed they run at 4000rpm?

I am 99% sure I rafted off that boat at the MBS PR in Islamorada. Guy came down for the day but wasn't part of the PR. Boat looked great in person. Guy took a bad fall off the back and cut his hand on the stern cleat. Sealed up the cut with superglue for a stitch until he could get to the ER.

I have one with 525's XR's. It runs great. Yes it could be faster, but you get what you pay for. Id let mine go for 275. Cant find a 850, 6's boat for that. Its runs 104. The only thing wrong with 525's in that boat, is that you want more, but how is that any different then any other boat. Every boat i have ever owned i wanted more power in.
Arneson does make a bravo to asd conversion w/ asd 7s and tie bar on a tower for 23k (I think) per side.

Best thing about a 525 boat is the reliability. I ran alot of poker runs, and although a 525 boat is far from the fastest it always finished the run in the top 10 percent. The bigger the power the shorter the distance in the runs from what I have seen. I could run that boat at 85-95 all day , and always finished the run. That being said... I did want more power and hopefully will be back on the water May 1st with the new one.

#6 and 700hp and UP is the only one to look at.
