[QUOTE="PrairieGhost, post: 219360, member: 704"] I'm running a 1750 Lund with a 130 Honda, and a Mercury 15hp pro kicker. Mine does 42 mph. If their are small waves it will hit 44 mph. Mine came out of the hole a little slow so I put one of those fins on the motor. It's up in about a boat length it feels like now. Also I don't get any porpoising now which it did before. Well, I shouldn't say I don't get any, but it trims out easily. Also before I couldn't lift my bow. Now I can lift until only the back half of the boat is in the water. I think it took away a couple miles per hour of the top end. 42 to 44 mph are my current speeds. I forget my prop pitch off hand, but I pitched it so 5500 rpm was all she would do when full throttle.
