well, most boats bigger than the one you're talking about, with the mods you have, run those speeds.
So, its safe to say you can expect those speeds too.
Considering that there are no hooks in the hull

yea reason im asking is he says its running 31 with a prodrive stage 1, and says the transom angle is 20degrees which i thought was for a gt. just want to make sure this make sense. i didnt know if a pd would run that on that transom angle. so he swears its 20degrees. i want to make sure

i guess im just scared of that 18'. haha years ago i never wouldve dreamed of running a boat that big. "always was thought to be a barge. that would get stuck so easy being so heavy ect" no it seems 18' is the norm. guys are running in the 30's ect. i do see that they may only run 30 and a 17' run 32 but when you load 4 guys and dog. the extra foot shines.

Mines a 18x60 and it has gone through just about everything I can find to put it through. Only got it stuck where I was absolutely fuked once. But it handles mud like a champ and don't struggle at all. Does 28-29 empty and around 25 with a 4 man 6 dozen decoy hunt load. 18 ft is what must people run. Although the next boat I buy will more than likely be a 20' hull.

Lots of ifs. It should be a strong motor and carry a load good. I would not expect a screamer on top end with a stock carb :D
