Not sure, there is a guy on 2cool that has had his up 66 with a light load and claims to run 63 with a tournament load but you never know for sure until you try it yourself. That is about the same numbers I was seeing with my Verado but getting less than 3 mpg while crusing. The guy on 2cool claims to cruise at 42-44 and get over 4mpg. If I can touch anything close to that I will be really happy.
I had a purebay a few years ago, 2400 with a Suz 300 on it, that boat would hit 60 with a light load. One good thing about the Purebay, at WOT it is still very stable. Every Haynie I have been in gets really loose at WOT. I loved the way the Haynie would ride at crusing speeds and take a side chop.
Thank you for the kind words regarding the boat guys.
