Just ordered a new 1748 phowler. Curious of the performance with the 23 swomp or if anyone has ran something similar. I terribly want the 23 because of pull start backup. Had my 23 swomp on 1648 alumacraft (#400 with floor) and ran 22 solo and 17 mph with wife 2 boys and 2 dogs and cooler(roughly #500 more to boat weight. Thanks in advance! |

Sounds like a great fit! Is that phowler .100 gauge? Wondering what the dry hull weight is? I read some rave reviews with a 23 copperhead sd as well as a 1744/1844 phowler. Great speeds on your previous hull! I only get 20.4 mph by myself with the swomp 26.5 efi. Please post review when you get yours and run it! |

The alumacraft was .08 I believe. #370 then added treated floor so I'm guessing around #400. The new phowler is .125. not sure the weight but if I guessed I would say around 550. I will post reviews once it's all together. |

He must have some adjustments or something. When mine runs wide open the cavitation plate is hardly in the water. He should be getting better speed than that. |

Yeah he hasn’t put many hours on it. Hopefully soon he can dial it in. 19 is a respectable speed though |

Yes it is. I'm actually hoping to get 17-18 with new rig. I would be super happy with that. |
