Got mine, Been out twice. Very pleased. 2574 express package, 150hp yamaha.
Mine has lifting strakes only on the center tube ( express package ) which is shorter than the 2 outside pontoons which have no lifting strakes.
went thru about 6 hrs from 1000rpm to 3000 rpm, before finally for a short period ramping up thru 4000rpm and 5000rpm.
2 persons - 36mph
5 persons - 32mph
5 persons - 4000rpm, cruises well at 22mph.
Turns good, handles well. Probably wouldnt go up to the ESP package unless I wanted higher speeds with more hp, such as moving up to 250hp, in 2574, I would go ESP
The boat handles well, rode very nice over waves from barge, and I cant say anything negative, I had reviewed performance test on yamaha outboard motor site and I wouldnt change anything, I see no reason to go to ESP package unless you want 200+ hp, and top speeds around 45mph - 50mph.
I would love to see other owners posting packages, hp, and speeds. This was one thing I looked for on this site and pretty much went with the performance test on the yamaha outboard motor website.
Happy with the Toon in Alabam
