[QUOTE="SDMF, post: 300108, member: 412"] Looking @ that ~18.5-19' range dry weight of the hulls: Yar-Craft 186 1950# Warrior 1898 2K # Ranger 619 2275# Nitro ZV19 2300# Lund 1875 Pro-V 1710# Alumacraft Trophy 185 1780# 1850 FishHawk 1720# 250-700#, and, if you ran like/like motor/HP on them I would expect all of the glass boats to outrun their lighter AL counterparts while riding more smoothly and getting better fuel mileage as well. Get rocky shore landings and gravel roads out of the mix and 'Glass is a no-brainer. I was a bit behind ndfinfan. Looking @ the Lund Impact 1875 @ 1410#, you could max it @ 150HP, strap a 150 to any of the above 'glass boats, and the Impact will be slower, rougher, and wetter but probably quicker to plane and hold a lower plane speed. I've posted this many times but here's my basis for 'glass hull efficiency. My current boat, 186 Yar-Craft Craft, 200HP 3.3L Yamaha w/9.9 Yamaha kicker. 34Gal fuel tank Previous boat 1850 FishHawk w/150 Suzuki 4-stroke, no kicker. 31Gal fuel tank Same electric TM on both boats, same number size batteries w/very similar placement within the boat. The layouts and where I store stuff is even very close to the same places. Current Yar-Craft feeding an extra 50HP and weighing an extra ~600# vs. my '06 FishHawk will run 6-8MPH faster for the same fuel burn. That holds true at virtually any planed out speed. I had/have fuel flow meters tied into the GPS on both boats. @ 5MPG, the C-liner could run @ 25MPH, the Yar-Craft can go 30-32MPH. @ 4MPG the C-Liner was 32-34MPH Yar-Craft is 38-40MPH. WOT is/was ~3MPG for both boats. The C-Liner would run 42-44MPH the Yar-Craft will run 50-52MPH. [/QUOTE]
