2016-2018 21VLX Top Speed

I know most of the time these boats are surfing at 11mph.  But does anyone barefoot behind a 21 VLX?  What is the top speed for these boats? No ballast, 2-3 people in boat, etc.   Anyone have comparsion for the 410 vs. the 450?

 

thanks in advance.

I did this past weekend.  Cousin has a 2017 21VLX and we went out to his lake house for the day.  Did a couple long line runs once we verified it could hit 41+.  I think we maxed out at 41.3mph.  It was just the two of us before sundown so no one to video but we may go back out this weekend.

I don't think you can get the 450 on the 21VLX.  

I think it was an option but this being more of a budget boat I can’t imagine finding one.

Do you know if he has the 410 or the 450 in his boat?

 

 

My 2017 has the 410.

I just checked, and you are right.  It was not an option on the 2017s, but it was a $7898 option on the 2018.  I’m not sure who would put a 450 in the 21vlx though.  The 410 was plenty for me in my 2017 outside of high altitude (Tahoe) and fully slammed.
