Good afternoon everyone. I am new to the Hurricane section but have been a member of IBoats for a long time, just cant remember my credentials so had to create a new one. Any how my wife had twin girls last October and we found that it was time to upgrade from our 18 foot chaparral to the 2008 hurricane gs 202 Fun Deck. The boat had less then 50 hours on it and still smelled brand new under the seats. Saying that I love this boat is a understatement. We have already put close to 20 hours on it since Friday. It is our dream boat for sure. The only concern I have is that I am reading that people are getting close to 50 MPH and when I was out with 4 kids and 2 adults we were hitting about 57 according to GPS. This was with a half tank of gas and maybe a cooler full of water. What is the WOT RPM for the 5.0 and Alpha Drive. I am concerned that I may be over propped or under i guess with the 17P. Don't get me wrong i am not complaining and also the GPS may have been goofy. Any how good bye for now from a happy Hurricane owner!!!
