The new hull design was introduced in '05 wasn't it? I was under the impression we were referring to the old hull. Very nice boats none the less... my good buddy just picked up an 03 288 with 496HO and labbed 24bravo... we haven't had a chance to take it out yet tho. Got him aboard the forum he's THE 288 KID give him a warm welcome to the sunsation family haha

05 and newer had a full step, prior to that it was a partial step. Boat weighs 4500 lbs dry either way.

Steve sed my boat will do 68 all day, and its touched 70 before on gps. I think Ur powerquest and this should be a good run fish.

I have a 288 ssr that runs 80 on gps. When I had the 3.3 whipple she ran 93. I was only able to test it becuase I leaned it out and burned the pistons.

If you use a mapped computer from whipple the 288 will run 5700 with a labbbed 29 bravo one at 82 to 83

the 525 efi on a 288 MCOB SSR pushes it a solid 79 all day with a 29 labbed.
