[QUOTE="Riggen&Jiggen, post: 106548, member: 564"] I have a Viper 180 and it has a 140 Johnson which is a Suzuki. I have 21 pitch 3 blade stainless and I get 41 mph by myself and no trolling motor batteries. Live well full, full gear, 2 trolling motor batteries and 2 guys I get 38 mph at 6K rpm. I am sure my glass boat weighs more than your acraft. Key thing is rpms. If you are getting 5.7 to 6K top rpms with a 21 pitch prop and you can only get low 30s for speed I would say the motor needs to be raised our something is wrong with they hull of the boat. [/QUOTE]
