Speed
 

I was wondering wat speed most of you guys get running your boat and also wat kind of rig your running?

So far my top speed is 68-70 but that's limited to the driver, not brave enuff to go faster yet but was told my boat would run 78mph....X19 xpress with 200hp Yammy:D

21 mph...15' Cajun Special with a 9.9 Evinrude...Speed Demon:grinpimp:

I got my 6.5 hp Go-devil up to 10.9 mph going down current in the Calcasieu river.

my 15x48 with 25yammy will do 35ish

Wanna trade?;) 21mph gets pretty old real fast.

naa but I will sell it to ya:D

Didn't you have a 25 Merc you was tryin to get rid of?

yep sold it with a 15x42

Yeah I saw that right after I commented.

Running 64 in a 24ft Haynie

38 in a 20ft Xpress with 4stroke 115. I want to go faster!

7mph in my kayak paddling my arse off!!!!!
Only when I try and outrun the gnats, does not work well haha

70 with a 40hp tohatsu on a 20 foot tunnel hull. course thats going down two ten bridge behind my truck. bout 40 on the water

I was wondering if an yaker was going to post on here.

You boys need to get back. I am clickin 10 MPH when I turn the 50 and the 30 lb Minn Kota Thrusters on The Electric Chicken!!

I would post pictures but there is not a camera with a shutter speed to handle it without massive blur.

:funny:

in that case my boat can go 98mph behind my truck considering my boat only weighs a few hundred pounds, I got a 1448 with a 35 johnson and it goes 30 weighted with two ice chest, battery, and a 260ld man with a bunch of fishing gear.

I think you blew past me this morning by White Oak :rolleyes:

Runnin bout 50ish on a 21' BayQuest with an old 135 Merucry BlackMax........ When the darn thing is running!!

that seems a little slow for that setup. thats a pretty light boat. i would think you could at least get 45 out that rig.

put a 10" jackplate and 200hp yammy on it and it will scare the crap out of ya

28 mph with a suzuki 25 on a 1548 alumaweld.

I think it is slow, going to look into props perhaps. It's a H20CC. I don't mind going 38, just wish I didn't have to go WOT all of the time.

do you have a jackplate?

18' ft 5 ft bottom 3/16" aluminum with 90 evinrude e-tech about 45 topped out

No I don't

that and prop would probly help but it seems like a 115hp is pretty small for that boat, my X19 Xpress which is a bass boat has a 200hp on a 10" jackplate

35-36 (bumps 37 every now and then) on an old 16x50 flat bottom G3 with an '07 tohatsu 40 (tiller handle with trim). The restrictor plate has been taken out of the intake which got me another 2-3 mph. I have a 5.5" jack plate, trim tabs, and I believe it's a 13" pitch powertech that I'm running. I had quite a bit of cup added to the prop. Grips a lot better and didn't slow me down any. It's a heavy boat to begin with plus 24 volt t.m. and 3 batts. Can't say enough about those motors. They are fine machines. Now everyone who owns a Merc 40 can fire away.

My top speed is 50 mph @ 6K rpms. 19 ft. Cobia w/150 Yamaha.

I just did my annual check up on her.
Print out showed 1/3 of my hours are < 1000 rpm.
1/3 of the hours are between 3K and 4k rpm.
1/3 of the hours are between 4K and 5K rpm.
She never ran hot, always had good oil pressure, good engine temp, good water pressure. I like the new engines that can show how she was ran.

13'6" Whaler w/ Nissan 40
19. Cape Horn Merc 150

Both top out at 42

33mph 1546 Xpress 25 yamaha

51mph 19 Fishmaster 150 Suzuki

1648 Alweld with 40 Merc. Depends on if it's running right or not. Did get 42mph out of it not running on all cylinders.

My brother finally got his Bullet running. She rolls at an astonishing 9mph. 75 on the highway

Those fuel-injected tohatsu's are good motors. Five or six guys at work run them with no problems.

57 in a 22 pathfinder with a 200hpdi yammy, usually run 35-37 at 3500-3700rpm. can't remember the size and pitch, would have to look. had my 4 blade on and was happy,but had the 3 blade tricked at bauman's in houston and i like it better, although it looks kinda fragile.

19' carloina skiff with a 115 yamaha 4 stroke
top out about 42mph loaded down

My whaler tops at 55mph with a light load with a 88 v4 omc with a port and polished block,carbon fiber reeds,and shaved heads. Also have a 15 foot duracraft with a 60 omc with port and polished block,70 carbs ,and carbon fiber reeds. Tops out at 45mph no matter what kind of load. It has one hell of a holeshot too,perfect for fishing the basin. Both of them drink alot of 93 octane gas. :(

54 in a Triton LTS 240 the Suzuki 250 four stroke on the back. 21 pitch Suzuki prop

22' H22B-SS Xpress
 

56 mph, on a 22' xpress with 175hp Suzuki. Me, the dog, and fishing gear.

you guys gotta help me out then, i am ashamed to say i have a 16foot express that maxes out at 31 by myself with hardly anything in it, it is a side console with front and back decks, it is a 1997 setup 40hp yamaha, it runs 28-30 with two people and gear

If you cut through all the crap and see what most of these small motors are really doing then you are in the ball park.

Single floor or double?

I agree with Jason.

floor
 

double

small
 

a 25hp running 35 is wow, a 40 hp running 40+mph is wow

With the double floor etc, you are probably close where you are at. May get a little more out of it messing with prop or jackplate.

PM Montauk, he should have some good input

this is my 15x48 Alweld and on a really good day I have ran it alone and empty at 34-35 gps but .....normally with my gear by my self its 32-33 gps on a good day or if I add merc with his crap it will do 30-31 gps.... and he will back this.
