Nothing really ....the engines are getting several hours on them and need to be freshed up, that should be worth something. The right water conditions, props and fresh engines, I would hope to see 2 to 4 MPH maybe. It great to buy something and run it for 70 hours and not have to work on it.

Bottoms the same, but I'm willing to bet Fountain kept raising the drives through the years till you could barely get on plane if you liked thick chicks.
