My 3.2 with a 15hp 4 stroke will hit close to 25 mph. And when Martin had his 3.8 with same engines as mine hit similar speeds

Re: Psychedelic flooring
With a 20hp honwave t40 ali floor i could acheive 19 knots on average......good boats its not all about speed they can support 1 ton of weight!!!!! And are as stable as oil rig in flat calm. Great boat enjoy
Life is like a chocolate bar........
If you hold onto it for too long u get covered in sh☆t so......
live a life you will remember, not a life full of untested dreams.

Re: Psychedelic flooring
