Has anyone upgraded from 360hp 2424ft to a 255 with the SVH0 engines? If so how does it feel? Deciding if i want to go 252xe or 255x

You may already be aware of this but there are a lot of differences between the 252XE and the 255XE beyond just the motors. Lots of interior upgrades in the 255 not on the 252, plus the integrated automatic wakeboosters are only on the 255s.

I think the 255XEs are just starting to roll into dealerships now. Hopefully we'll get some use reports here in the near future that will be able to answer your question.

Obviously if you can afford the boat you can afford the fuel, but the consumption is going to be crazy.

Given the power to weight, I’m guessing it’s similar to a 212 with the 360. I’m interested if the new 252 rear layout helps with noise at all.
