Post 20.2mph with a hunt load...slow to get to speed.
But it got there.

3 of us and 6 dozen decoys, 3 guns, 9 gal fuel, blind, all the gear on board. ..

Once on step got 20.2 avg speed on a glass calm day.

Stopped for a minute in the middle of the lake - hammered the throttle again...got to 10mph...then 11..13...16....18...19.7......20

Took a while =)

Not bad for a 1760 lowe and a bone stock 35 HD Sport.

Pretty happy considering one of my guys is 330 with his waders and coat on.

Mudxxed aint lying.. When we had our 35HD sport, we did only the minkuni carb and the Q muffler and it was like having a whole new motor. So much more hole shot and top speed

Lol

You guys are a hoot

I was contemplating the mikuni and a Q muffler

$$$$$

But it would be nice to see how it does in the cold north this season bone stock.

Maybe next year

Well tested out max load capacity today.

1465 lbs made up of stuff in the boat including

4 guys and a lot of gear
Rediculous amount of decoys on long lines
9 gal fuel
Ice on the boat

Breakneck speeds of





8.5mph.

Would not plane out we PLOWED for 5 miles to the blind today. Sloooow going but we still had fun.

The review continues.

Bah, I dont usually have that heavy of a hunt load - 2 or 3 at the most usually at 15-22 mph

This was a special day with 4 of us.

Sure I want to mod this out, but I dont need to ;) valves need to be re seated but season's almost done. I'm patient =)

You may need to weigh that 330#er again to find out how many twinkies he consumed since your last outing. He may have packed on a few more pounds since.
