Me by myself in deep water (230lbs) = 31 MPH. Me + 1 person in deep water (460lbs) = 26 MPH. Me + 2 people in deep water (660lbs) = 24 MPH. (All with 12 gallons of fuel) Havent got to try it in shallow water yet but will post up speeds when I do. |

Top end sounds good but your speed with a load seems low. I had 1000#s of beef,a generator,2 batteries,2 ice chest and mine was still doing 25-26 in deep water. |

Them loaded speeds aren't good at all! A friend of mine just got a 16 x 54 gator tail boat with a 35 GTR and a stage 2 installed by Hoyt and it ran 31.8 with 3 people, 2 batteries and a trolling motor! |

it could be how the load is situated in the boat too because if i even put one person on the front my boat starts pushing water and slows down like crazy |
