I also have a 2017 2520xld with a 300. My numbers are the same, 4300 28-30mph which I am very satisfied for cruising. I do only get 5400 top. Last time I ran at that was up 5 trim bars and 42mph. I think those numbers are very good for a single 300. My last Parker was a 2520sld with a single 250...

Thank you, good to know on the 4 blade. The 4 blade that I put on my old boat did help with my cruise numbers and in a following sea. This 300 has a lot more torque with the big 4.2 liter. Again I am thrilled with the performance with this 300. Grady

Performance on new 2520 xld with single 300. Thought I would post this because I have seen so many posts that the 2520 xld should have twins on it. I previously had a 2520sld with a single 250. That boat was slow, I had to run that boat at 4800rpms to achieve 27 mph. In a following sea I...

I am actually looking for rpm's at 30 mph or there about. Grady

What kind of performance numbers do you get with the single 300?

Just ordered a 2520XLD with single 300, saw the numbers on the website. Anyone have there real numbers on performance. Previously had a 2520SLD with a single 250 and am hoping these numbers will be a little better.

I am sure I do on a fishing picture some where. Parker makes a fold down splash well that I have here at my house in Pa. I never installed it for it was never needed and I do Ocean fishing. There were many times I was happy to have the transom mount when fighting a large fish, it was so much...
