Talking tri toons,... every 25 hp from 150 hp = 1 mph top end gain??? so guessing on fact... but a 24' tri toon with a 150 hp runs 38 mph... a 200 hp runs 40 mph,... and a 250 runs 42 mph ????

More varibles than fiberglass boats for sure.
The weight (interior options), and design of the tubes from one mfg. to the next can be substantial, let alone the height/ position of the O/B on the stern, in regards to speed.

I recall older Bennington 24’s (06-09), seeing 46-48 with 250’s (light load of course)
