Big weight difference,hopefully you don't need trim tabs. Should get 50mph or more out of it.

Motor looks too low....is it mounted on the last bolt hole? Your cavitation plate needs to be even with the bottom of the boat when trimed level. Just trying to help you save some headache.

well i finally put it in the water. ran it for about an hour with a top GPS speed of 36.7!!!

what is wrong????
with it in the corner, i'm turning about 5800rpm's.
when i have the throttle in 3/4 position, it is topped out.then i stick it all the way and nothing happens.
i called Landry's and left a message, hopefully he will get it rite for me??!!??
