pabassin Posted March 27, 2009 Author Posted March 27, 2009 I actually drove from Pittsburgh area to missouri to get it. i was nervous because i drove 11 hours and didnt want to be disappointed. my wife went along, she would have been extremely mad if we drove 22 hours round trip with nothing to bring home. i was excited on the way home. i have not personally had it out yet, we ran it down there. we didnt open it up, but i was told 50-55 depending on load and conditions. it has a mean mercury custom 4 blade prop. he had it at 55 gps one person tackle 1/2 fuel.
