Post 35LT speeds
I got on a lease this year that isnt very surface drive friendly. I really probably need an airboat, but I think I can make due with a LT. Before I make any decisions about moving from a 35SD, Im just currious what kind of speeds I can expect from a 1848 Go Devil boat with a 35hp Long Tail.

I run 17-19 depending on the load at 29-3100 RPM usually 3 peoples deke's and a dog or two best is 23 with just me and no gear. I would be interested in doing some swapping if you are interested in getting rid of the SD. My 35 vanguard has less than 20 hrs on the tach and a galvanized frame. PM me or give me a shout 979 574 5275 Beaumont, TX - John West
BTW I go all down I-10 to Mississippi if you are in South LA

I run 20 mph with 2 people and decoys on a 14/48 w a 23 hp gdlt and 14 mph with 3 people decoys and a dog and all our gear both times in deep water I would think you would run mid 20's no problem
