@ Tedious and @ Perichbrothers. I agree with both of you. I like cruising at no more than 4300 and handling is important to me. When I bought the boat 2 years ago it was so poorly setup for handling and speed I had to do some exploring. I was also suspicious that perhaps the boat is heavier than the spec. 1020 pounds because of a wet hull. I did not like how the previous owner plumbed the bait well. These are the reasons why I wanted to compare outright performance.
