I think the 21 superboats have a 7'6" beam and the 22 velocities are 7'11".

...Good info here...My Velocity 22, bought new in 1986, w/a 200 mariner would radar @ 72 on a good day...no jackplate & nose "even" w/the pad..Ran a 24 pitch Merc chopper(3-blade)...I REALLY miss that boat & am looking for another...I have a nice 3.6 V8 Rrevinrude on my 85 Rally Sport that I "think" would be great on a V22...You guys seem to like 10" of setback/jackplate...Would that be "right" w/a heavy motor like the 3.6, or, would that mean a little less setback..?..Just gathering info for near future use...Anyone interested in an 85 Rally Sport..haha...Thanx for the thread btw...

I have yet to hit the 85 number, i have a best of 80 on the nose, bouncing the rev limiter. I am hoping the slight setup change and spinning a 30p will bring me damn close to 85 which is why i posted I'm on teh quest to 85. I am going to try to hit that number with a stock 225 powerhead. Everybody said that it is impossible to run 80 with my motor, and I did that so I want to see just how much I can manage to squeeze out of this boat without adding more power!

I am looking to see 80 next summer.I have a new powerhead on the way.Hope to save some weight some way this winter redoing the interior.Im guessing my 98 is almost twice the weight of Mikeylarge's 85 velocity.

I haven't been on Scream and Fly for quite some time and was excited to see a post on Velocity set up. These are great boats and in Oklahoma get a lot of comments. Mine is down and out right now I melted a piston on Labor Day weekend. Here's what I got.
'89 22' Velocity
'99 2.5L 280hp Offshore (rev limit 8200)
prop is 22" Hydromotive O/T 4 blade
5" Hydraulic jack plate (usually run about 1" below pad)
Last GPS run was 73mph @7400rpm
I've been curious what change I could expect if I traded out to a 3.0L 225 or 300. I honestly feel the boat is too heavy for my high stung 280.Jeremy Lewis
